3 out of 6 so far! Well, shorting a stock interests me--wish I would of done it on KTEL, thought about it as it hovered in the 70's on hype. Thought I'd check out your thread. Looks like you do a lot of DD, but 50% accuracy?! And considering the other three stocks are doing not only better than they were back when you picked them, but are doing very well. Good call though on BTIM and ZITL. How much did you and other naysayers have to do with the fall of the stock price? Did you post your negative opinions over and over again on their threads? Shorting is a valid way of investing, but I have to say, I can't stand the shorters that think they can control the behavior of the stock and do all they can to do so! What is your MO?

Hi Bill, Just a couple of days ago I bought my first PUTs. Aug 35 ZONA for $10. Just a bit curious about your views on the added leverage of PUTs as opposed to the lack of a time limit on SHORTs. If you think something will tank rather quickly will you opt for the PUTs? thanks, tom
