that is just the reason i will await the opportunity to short that high flyer named dell. it is just a matter of time before they falter. and that time will be soon. gateway started 60 miles from my home city when i grew up and everyone at one time said they would never falter. and people said the same of iomega and hewlett packard. dell is not and will not ever be infallible and the more it becomes a "wall street darling", the better i like it since that means i make even more on the large fallthat will entail. just my opinion. but for now we wait. dell did flash a sell signal, but as you stated has held up well. 6 months from now, we could easily be at 80 or below. for now, i have no position in dell and have no more shorts. covered them all for profits. but the market internals don't look healthy and i am looking for more shorting opportunities and believe that the short side is the side of the market to be on now. good luck.
