He even had a sheepish and weird explanation for selling some of his own ASND stock: "You cannot have all of the eggs in one basket," he said. "Even Bob Dole needs to diversify now that he's retired." Wow? Does this mean Ejabat is thinking retirement? JJ

Ejabat's explanation selling his shares: > "You cannot have all of the eggs in one basket, Even Bob Dole > needs to diversify now that he's retired." What a comprehensive, and logical answer?! So does this mean that he sold his ASND shares and bought CSCO and COMS instead?! Dont want to even think about how Bob Dole fits into this picture!! On the Merril Lynch analyst shaking his head and saying: "Things are not good, Things are not good." . Well you know what this means?! An upgrade of ASND by MerrilLynch from whatever its rating on the stock is (e.g. hold) to a strong buy! Their special big clients (if not already out) will soon be departing from the stock!

Nick: Ejabat used an inappropriate metaphor with impeccably bad timing. So..what else is new? Analysts have been shaking their heads for a long time. Thats what they do. Agreed that it was a poor performance, from your post... Regards Gregory Murphy
