<<FWIW, I never disclosed where or how much I shorted Iomega.>> it's not hard to tell, i just looked at the date when you started posting your B.S on the iomega thread. BTW i thought you were going to continue to "taunt" us over there. HOW DOES IT FEEL BEING SHORT TODAY? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Hi Bearded One and ALL, Pancho here. yes today is not a good day for shorts. So longs get to laugh! However, I still beieve they do not have the last word in this crazy market. Today was a day to sell either short or existing long positions. never a day to go long or cover. Despite a substantial net long position, I am getting hit hard particularly on my y2k stocks (being long COMS is not helping much) I will, however, maintain a long term view in regards to these dogs [y2k stocks]. Even BFIT is doing great almost up one point! Of course I like beating the market on all time frames, yearly, monthly, weekly, hourly, but this is not possible! last week I had some of my best days ever so I am experiencing "regression to mean". I may be wrong but I will stick to my strategy and homework in regards to my shorts. Regards, Pancho
