jeff, Vivus wasn't sold off today......it was sold short. Bear Sterns (or his client) is taking a bath on their short position since the day of earnings. If the other market makers lets them get out now at these levels then they will break even at best. If they don't support the price at 6 1/2 then they will make money at anything below 6 1/2. I myself never thought we would go below 7 again but what the hell do I know. If the longs are dumb enough to sell out again at these levels then so be it. Someone call Vivus and tell that Nina F. gal to tell Mr. Wilson to cut that deal already. We don't care to wait any longer. If Wilson finally does his job and sells Vivus at 20 or more I think everyone who held on this long won't complain too much. Mr Wilson, if you read this thread all I can say is that you sir are a STOOGE and need to smell the coffee. SELL NOW before our stock goes down to below 6 again. I don't give a hoot as to how many shares you still own and that you probably think that this company is worth a lot more than 20 bucks a share. Take what you can get NOW you moron before the shorts finish us off!
