Pancho:

Schwab told me this A.M. that WDRY could not be shorted since it was not marginable. What can one do to short it without having to put up a bunch of cash?

>> The only reason I can think of DEC may be interested in ACLY is that they may want to add one more of their long string of failures<<

I agree and it really saddens me. I was at DEC for 21 years when it really was a very respected company. Then, who knows what the heck happened. There are a million stories and I believe most are true to some extent.

If I hear any more I will post.

P.S. I think that ALCY is a great short candidate but it "feels" like it has a way to run yet. With that bit of "advice", ALCY will now drop like a rock!!
