"I can guarantee you that no short can distort and spread scare stories about MO. It is simply not possible" I am sorry, but with all due respect, you could not be more wrong. I have owned Mo for over 15 years, and for at least 10 of those years, I would wake up every am and brace myself for whatever real or unreal news there would be about litigation. I don't recall when it was but it was my biggest holding one year when I woke up one am, and it was down 25% plus. It took at least a year to come back, and really didn't get going great again until spring of 2000 after that. There are no true safe havens. The most peace of mind is earned by buying after total collapse by anyone's definition, in something that has a monopoly. And in that case, the government will be after your company.
