martin, Vivus at 7 3/16?? Let's see a CRUT upgrade got us from 7 5/8 to 14 1/4 in less than a week. Maybe some of the other 4 Anal_ysts will get their heads out of their butts and upgrade Vivus based on price alone or maybe they should wake up regarding the international markets. We might here some news on another new product come Thursday. The tide is begining to turn a bit now against the shorts. A lot of money to be made now on short covering alone. Remember the move from 7 5/8 to 14 1/4 occured with only 11.5 million short interest--it is higher now AND Vivus is 3 months closer towards significant penetration of international markets. Wilson knows that at this point he better start pulling rabbits out of his hat regarding future prospectives. Shorts had their chance to cover under 6 for a good long time. I hope they will be denied an opportunity now to cover under 7. Serves them right for being greedy pigs. All weak holders are out now so there will be no downward pressure for a while based on pure selling. VLAD
