Can someone who's been with CMGI a long time tell us what accounted for the slide from 50 to 10 throughout 1996?

Thanks, Rich

Ice, Elroy, or others,
Can someone please explain to me what shorting a stock is exactly. I know about it somewhat. I know it's risky, and your somehow you're borrowing money and betting the stock will drop. But I'm not too familiar with it. Thanks,

Nick
