Yeah, I'm with you, John. I rode this thing all the way up to 13 (as did you), and then covered the day before Asensio's first mention of HEB in BW, last week. Timing is everything.

At least we didn't lose much. There's always others.

Attempted to short HEB today. "No shares available for shorting " was the song and dance Ameritrade gave me. :-(

RE: LHSG

Greetings,

An interesting news item on Yahoo this AM re their treatment of unbilled receivables. It looks like a tempting short in spite of the huge short interest and the "German" equation. The stock price recently ballooned up to 60 from 41 and now it's back down to around 49 or so. It's up quite a bit today in spite of the negative article, go figure.

regards,
bb
