1997 Summary Post Folks, we had a very good 1997. I think many of the short sellers on this thread made a lot of money in 1997. Below are some of our successes. The original four picks: CTXS original price 39 target 20 low 9 3/4 current price 76 (we covered but are shorting again for 1998) RMDY original price 53 target 30 low 20 5/8 current price 21 (we are out of this one) VIAS original price 47 target 10 low 27 1/4 current price 42 1/4 (we covered but are shorting again for 1998) ZITL original price 44 target 5 low 9 current price 9 1/2 (we are still holding this short!) And many other stocks were discussed and shorted successfully during the year. Some of these were: vvus ddim ctn avnt and insgy ctys prst msft intc nscp And we have had major disappointments in dell, yhoo and aol, shorts whose time will come in 1998. Happy New Year Roger
