Kim, Re: " But for now I'm not looking for a ticket to find out how low VVUS can go. " Me neither, this is why the last few days I lightened up my position at the higher numbers of buying prices; acting as a trader, not as an investor. I still own enough of a long position. TA

A contrarian would have a field day with this thread. When vvus was heading back up to 15, the longs were chattering away about europe, impending plant approval, short squeezes and how this stock was a great but and way under valued. On the bear thread, not a sound. Now that the stock is retracing and testing those lows my how the mood has changed. Capitulation rules the day on the long side and the bear thread is jumping. It is no wonder the average investor loses money. Is there anything diffeent with this company than there was three weeks ago? The large volume today was great to see. Shake out those weak hands so they are not in the way when this thing begins to go. Nobody likes this company at 11 but they will love it at 25. Buy straw hats in the winter. Good Luck.
