My trade, if I were a trader, buy now sell at 8 on a news spike. If I were you or CC I would short at 8 on the same news spike. I believe your short at 5 is a crowded party. That's why I like it as an entry for a long position. I tend to agree, based on the support the stock has shown. It could and might erode, but it seems that it's more likely to base here and pop to 8 on news, which would be a signal for profit-taking.

Scott, Don't be so sure about "no substantiation of the negative news", at least Barry Witz was resigned as Director of Osicom around the time of Barron's article due to his health problem, and I am pretty sure that he is still healthily and actively living and he still is a major shareholder of FIBR. Does he still have any involvement in FIBR's business? Including unoffically? Any way to confirm that and any clue why this was happened? CH

>>>His financial data was incorrect.<<< Um, so why should we believe that it will be correct this time around? BTW, for all who emailed me, I did decide I would not be emailing out the report, but you can view a slightly earlier report by David P. at akinrin.com It is essentially the same report, although he did goose the numbers up a few weeks later. I decided not to email it because International Grandmaster on the Yahoo! FIBR thread pointed out that .doc files can contain a virus, and I sure don't need to be accused of sending out a virus. >>>This number could increase going forward, but not by millions, maybe a few hundred thousand here and there as needed.<<< Why do you suppose that FIBR won't use the same financing scheme to ramp up the new products? There is a need for money, and they have shown a willingness to use this method of financing. Has their financial situation improved enough so they can get conventional financing? Do you really think a secondary is a possibility? Par said in the 12/97 conference call that (at least some of) the extra 30 million shares would be set aside to finance the ramp up. Why should I believe they won't be issued? The company doesn't have a good record of disclosure on this matter, IMO. Frankly, I'll believe they are delivering shareholder value when I see it. Barb
