Re: My short position has been initiated because of TA: not because I know anything about DELL. This is one of the best ways to loose money. MEATHEAD P.S. I'm betting on Pittsburg to win the superbowl because they have really neat uniforms.

Francois: You have an interesting way of investing and I wish you the best of luck. But if you are going short for long on Dell(ggg), then the following should be considered <<<< like to short overpriced, popular stocks.>>>> Overpriced: This fundamental assumption is a killer for bulls and bears . Many have sold for 20 % profit in past years and lost a gain of 400% more if kept. Dell may appear overpriced, relative to say wdc, qntm, seg, jbil, and many more. Anyone who can tell for sure that a stock is overpriced should be rich long ago. Popular : Here on the thread we stand in a vast forest of stocks and can see only a few with clarity. Many of my neighbors had never heard of Dell, until I mentioned it. The company report listed only 3600 shareholders, with @60 % being held by institutions. That leaves of 360 mil shs, only 144 mil in 'public' hands. It is not yet comparable to ATT or BAC for popular. ( but it is fast getting to be the talk of WS, which is going to increase its value, esp with so few shares and Dell buying them back at a fast pace) SES
