Report attributed to Bloomberg that DAVX director Robert Scott Asen bought 93,500 shares 7/23-7/31 at prices ranging from $12.31 to $14.33. That's just under 1% of the outstanding shares. messages.yahoo.com@m2.yahoo.com But then again, he's only a director. What does he know? Baird

Patrick, somebody has been selling DAVX short heavily in the last month or two. If the data at yahoo.marketguide.com is correct, the short interest in DAVX increased from 298 thousand shares in June to 575 thousand shares, over 13% of the float, in July. This is consistent with the theory posted by "valueonly" on the Yahoo board, that a hedge fund sold DAVX short, beginning a price drop that panicked some funds into selling into the fall, driving DAVX way below fair value. At which point, insiders and other funds bought lots. It would be fun to see a short squeeze. Doug (long DAVX)
