"Can't believe Robet and Lzrd both went long this dog" Yeah. Neither can I. I'd bet they didn't go long and am skeptical whether they were short. One thing is for sure...they couldn't miss the opportunity to do a little face-grinding. This contrary @#$#$@ never does what you think it should (short term)...better do what I think it should long term or I will be quite sorry...to say the least.

<<Can't believe Robet and Lzrd both went long this dog. What wasted dead money. Anybody think there's something else fundamentally wrong we haven't considered or heard about?>> I told you what was fundamentally wrong, this company does convertibles. There is only one kind of convertible I like, and that is a car. Convertibles= dilution and shorts. The reason this is a good trader however is that there were too many shorts piled on the boat, and now they are going to have to cover, except those involved in arbitrage. Stock is looking pretty good at this point, nice move on huge volume.
