This one may lose another point, or it may not. I thought HWP was a good short after they dissappointed, because it's initial drop wasn't enough. And, indeed, it's down another 5 points since earnings. The difference is that SMOD didn't run up prior to earnings, it lost 20% in the weeks before. My opinion is that it was fairly valued when earnings came out. Thereafter, it should have lost a couple points in a bad market. Not 8. This was over-done during a time when DELL, among other boxers, is "adjusting" on woes that PC sales and margins are weakening. A whole lot of bad timing came into play here, not just the company's over-honesty.

Let 'em all short it, this only means more buyers in the future and more shares to be bought on the cheap! Shorting is in most cases a short term investment, I am a long term investor and SMOD a year or two from now will be rocketing.
