Sam,
Are there any competitors chains or independent gyms in the East and South? How the fund try to make money - hype it then get out or think it will go like amzn, yhoo, or try to do short squeeze? It is nice if somone short it at peaks or close to. Do you think this one can break out above 30? I just wonder that any bear funds pay attention to this?
Thanks

Sam and all: does any one knows/is willing to do the leg work on getting the names and address of the sharp analysts following this stock? That way we can point them to my analysis and see if they switch to strong buy [the ones recommending it as a buy]
