Yes, your previous post about EBay hiring like gang-busters is one of the things that made me hesitate on shorting it. But actually shorting into an earnings announcement worked very nicely for me on Genentech last week. Expectations are so absurdly high now that good earnings are not enough - even supercalifragilistic earnings might not be enough.

Hmmm ... this tactic would have worked nicely on Yahoo and Intel too.
