Don -- "Flight to safety?" -- Maybe so, but as a short how can you consider NCR a safe stock?

I'd be careful shorting a company like NCR, simply because of the revenues and assets.. A sale of assets or a slight increase in margins could have a big impact on the upside while it looks cheap based on sales relative to its competitors. Anyway, Im sure you have considered things like that, Im long so I wont wish you good luck on this one anyway.. Scott
