Regretfully that does not solve my past mistake of investing in ASND! I am a long term investor but with all the recent credebility issues with management, insider sellings, hype and their smooth/sleezy way of telling investors that their growth is slowing down, has brought me to a point to push the button in about 10 minutes from now (right at the close) and dump my ASND shares and take the loss as a tax write off for this year. A very expensive lesson to learn to pay attention more to P/S and the management! Addi, I had a similar experience with Silicoln Graphics. I finally sold at a loss at $24 friends told me I was crazy, that the stock was at it's low, that it was a 40+ stock etc, etc. The stock can be bought for about 14-15 today. I sold some ASND today for the same reason that you did. It may be higher tomorrow or next week but I sure feel relieved. Regards, Ray
