IMHO the recent insider selling, loss of market share to competitors, and margin erosion due to greater competitiveness make predictions of doubling and tripling from a price of 25 very doubtful. Given significant insider selling in mid 20s, my guess is we haven't seen bottom yet. I'm looking for 18-19. IMHO, doubling from 18-19 in 1998 is achievable. P.S. I'm also looking for CS to bottom at 18-19 and another doubling in 1998.

ry, someone bought/sold 1000 Jan 30 calls (QQAAF) this afternoon in one transaction. Any way to find out if it was a buy to open or sell to open? I'm sure it was a buy....makes me love my Jan25calls. If you saw a 1000 contract that was worth $100K! I was getting ready to point out to Tim $40 is only 15points away! I feel a pop is coming....(why only 5/8 today?) but $30-35 here we come! My chart says so and I got the feeling alot of fund managers are about to take notice also. up 5/8 today? Ascend has been Bitch slapped enough....I believe its time for revised earnings estimates....contract announcements or merger talks announcement! Mory needs to start playing hard ball! Now you have a penny antie internet magazine calling ASND a 2nd tier nitch player?(Red Herring) I saw them at Comdex...they were telling me...Telco's out...ISP's in? Hey folks! Its time to jump onboard! Anyone dreaming about the 20 or less. WAKE UP! I wish I could buy RAMBUS in the $20's It aint gonna happen! Jeff I am really really tempted to buy some CSCO puts!
