Ken, the thing you are ignoring is that there is such a thing as a buy to close trade. You have included at least 2 stocks in your calculations that Bill has posted that he closed at lower prices. Further, you are omitting the many successful additions to the Doom Index. It is your credibility that is called into these practices. I shorted Yahoo! last year and made some money. Does the fact that I covered at about 25% of the current price mean that it wasn't a good short? I also shorted EGGS earlier this year in the 6s, and covered at 9 and change. Does that mean that I've lost 15 points per share? If you want to present data, you need to present accurate data. Barb
