Even an expert short seller said in the latest issue of smart money that he would not touch shorting issues like Yahoo or Amazon. He said that it's impossible to know whether these issues will boom or falter. He sticks to better probabilities like the latest semicondutor fallout. Here's a guy who knows how to make money, not these guys who just continue to waste time thinking they are going to make a killing shorting Yahoo. Anyone who shorted in the last 3 months should have made a killing and if they didn't then they are picking the wrong stock.

Geez Sal...I've made lots of lousy short-term calls in my day, but you are the only person I know who consistently bats 1000!!!

<<Bill Wexler finally gave up?!?!?!>>

Not at all. I already stated that I erred by shorting Yahoo too early (a matter of luck - pure and simple). However, my fundamental analysis of the company is correct, therefore I've been shorting more on the way up and hedging by selling puts. Long term, I still expect the price to decline dramatically.
