re old message on shorting

I guess what astonishes me is anyone shorting DELL. There are so many stocks out there, does it make them feel macho or something? Why DELL, the finest performer for the last xxxxxxxx years? When there are so many choices of companies with miserable fundamentals or low earnings?

Anyone that wants to short DELL at THE TOP and hold for years. Do so TODAY. You could have done so for he last couple weeks, but you would have been underwater a few bucks. Today should be THE TOP. Ride the wave to $5 late next year!

"LT: How soon; DELL has not looked that strong even with the big bull run starting last Friday. Could see 53-55 by this Friday!"
