Style:Thx for short interest info which has explosive implications for CYMI. The Knucklehead Smith that shorted a Queen Mary shipload of CYMI stock last Sept.-Oct. is so stuck that he hasn't been able to cover nary a share while the stock has rocketed up 50%. In fact an additional 100 thou shares had to be shorted to keep the lid from blowing clean off. Sooner or later the pressure on this huge exposed short position is gonna be too much to bear and this stock is gonna kite higher faster than you can say "Bob's your uncle". It is now becoming very clear that the sky is the limit for CYMI's earnings growth and the stock price will quickly reflect that reality. If you're short you need to try and inch your way out on dips, sell puts and, in the end, you will just take a plain black and blue beating in the market anyway. Needless to say, one way to really squeeze this short position is to ask your broker for physical delivery of your certificates or have your shares placed in a separate non-margin cash account so they can't be lent out to be shorted. Good Luck To Each And All Curly ~~~~~~~^^ [6.6] .....> [_]

Style Pts, Is the "short interest" information you provided something a home investor can look up on the internet for free? Or do you get the "short and long" info from a paid service? Thanks for providing it. Mark

I love it.. so all the short squeeze talk was bubbles... Looks like a lot of people just saw a good company selling for less that $20. Check out the earnings report for THQI. They only have 7 million shares outstanding. I missed that one at $9.6875 because I wanted it at $9.50 a couple of months ago. It's at $25 now. That hurts.. I don't even want to show my face at the THQI thread. I knew I was playing games and should have just bought it instead of getting greedy. Now I want CYMI for $15-16 again...? :-) Aloha
