TO those looking to WIND as a good short... I suggest that you read a few posts on the WIND thread. Yes, they have a high PE, BUT, they are consistently delivering earnings growth around 70-80% and sales growth 40-50%. I20 revenue will begin to show up in the bottom line in the next 6 months and then analysts will significantly raise estimates. (If you don't believe me call the company or Shiela Ennis (sp?) analyst at H&Q). If you are looking short term you may get lucky, but at least don't short until earnings are announced. If history is any guide, they always run up before earnings and then drop as soon as earnings are announced (on November 19th)- buy on rumor/sell on news I suppose. I believe this will continue to happen until their earnings really start to accelerate - then the shorts better be wearing bullet-proof vests.... p.s. If you are looking for a good short - read the latest posts by Allen Benn on the WIND thread regarding INTS... Carolyn (of course I am long on WIND)
