Vtech sounds like a good short, but ... With 3 mil. shares in the float, and short ratio (ratio of short interest to average daily volume) of 14, this stock could make for one heck of a short squeeze, if its earnings surprise to the upside. Interesting, the Marketguide Profile on Yahoo! (which doesn't track days of inventory, and things like that) actually makes this stock look like a pretty good deal. And on this page: biz.yahoo.com*http://yahoo.marketguide.com/MGI/SearchReport.html?Search_Field_A=Ticker&Search_Report=5&Search_Value=VTCH It shows 11 insiders trades over the past 6 months ... all buys. Not huge buys, but buys and no sales.
