Hi charger, <What a bunch of bears on this thread!> Since I own both stock and puts, I don't really think I would quite qualify as a pure bear. Maybe just a little more in touch with reality. I see from your profile, you consider yourself a professional trader. What is your take on the conference call? No "professional" would fail to avail himself of that kind of information, so no doubt you listened to it. What in your opinion were the high and low points? How close do you think consensus estimates are to what actual earnings will be this Q? What is the percentage of institutional share holders? How much change in institutional ownership was there last month? What percentage of S3s business is OEMs? Which OEMs are shipping products with S3 chips? What competitors chips are shipping in OEM products? What does the 10 day %K look like? Will any new S3 chips ship in production quantities this quarter? When was the last time S3 insiders purchased shares of their own stock? What is the penalty for leaking inside information ahead of news that will likely affect a stocks price? I can answer these questions, can you? How about sharing some of your "professional" analysis so we'll know that you aren't a chump who doesn't know what he is talking about? Regards, Don
