"COMS CEO Eric Benhamou Resigns" from reuters 24/03/98 20:15:00 EST "COMS CEO Eric Benhamou Resigns" "COMS CEO Eric Benhamou resigned this evening after his company released dissappointing earnings. Mr. Benhamou stated that he feels his ability to run the 5 billion dollar corporation is inadequate and would be best served by a change at the top. Mr. Benhamou added that COMS Board has already found a replacement for him in the form of a family of monkeys. "They are better at finance and marketing", said a dejected Mr. Benhamou, "...and they will work for bananas." The monkeys were not available for comment." I am new here and don't know much about shorting stocks, but isn't a company run by monkeys a bad sign. From a technical analysis point of view, doesn't it show a negative cross-something on a lower bollinger-banana band. Short on 3Com :)
