Most of us saw this today. Thanks for posting. All it means to me, as I troubled myself to read the entire article, not just the last few sentences, is that CCSI has been one of the best investments Schonberg made in the last year. Also, from the article you cite: "And so far, Chromatics and Macrochem have performed spectacularly. In the last 12 months, CCSI had leapt about 320%, while Macrochem is up about 60%." Thank God Schonberg had CCSI in the portfolio! 320% growth! It saved his nickers over the last year! Don't think that the new fund manager won't have that exactly in mind as he researches how to repair some of Schonberg's mistakes over the course of the next few months. CCSI has proved a clear winner, and a great success for Dreyfus. Do you think they'll cut loose one of their biggest winners just before THE MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT? Think again.

lbs...lol... you have no position in the stock but you found the time to pick out this particular article and post it here? Yea, right... I realize you're trying to milk it, but the article has been out ALL day long...for all the "gloom and doom" CCSI wasn't off very much today...CCSI has been one of the stars of the Dreyfus portfolio...one may legitimately criticize whether a fund should ever make such a heavy investment in a small cap stock with a low trading volume, but that is a separate issue from CCSI which has more than doubled in value since the fund purchased it, and in fact was mentioned by the Wall Street Journal only a few months ago as being one of the best performers in the fund. Anyone who thinks Dreyfus is about to sell off their position in CCSI is very naive. If you're holding your breath waiting for it to happen in the near term, you're making a mistake...imho of course, and what do I know, just a dumb Oregon farmer here...
