It's really sad for the little guys. I never margin!

Remember the short squeeze on the way up??? Well, it works as a vicious (or virtuous depending on your perspective) on the way down. Those are indeed the margin calls. This is almost as riveting as the steroid induced ride up. No sense arguing fundamentals here at this point, but John Ke had a nice post over on TMF (where my earlier post was scammed from) pointing out that Benjy was unavailable for comment but an assistant confirmed that he holds a $46 price target and a buy rating -- go figure, but I'm all for a near term $46 price target (I"m going long at oh, say $5 -- $15 share). TO all the longs, bulls esp Mark Fowler, William Harmond, Impristine, et al ... I really hope that you were out of the stock and did not suffer losses here or on other positions. The debate may get punchy at times, but it's all hopefully been in the spirit of learning and good fun. Good luck to all and remember chapter 3 of Siegel's "Stocks for the long run"!!! LP
