BOST may be a great place to eat but it is still a lousy company.....it was trading based on the cash it generated acting as a bank to its franchisees. As a restaurant, it has no real earnings and I still would not buy it. I covered my short long ago and too soon in the teens, but I did short it near 40 so I have no complaints. My biggest regret is that I never shorted enough Planet Hollywood, shares were impossible to get!

Good luck to you, the restaurant business is one of the easiest places to make money being short. I am looking for a new one. Any ideas?....:^)
