Yes, shorting it today would probably not be a good idea, because the CEO of COOL is going to be on CNBC tomorrow morning--that's why the stock is continuing to run up today. However, after the CEO is done his interview on CNBC, I will probably short the stock heavily, assuming the CEO does not mention any "new" news about the company in his interview.... This strategy worked for me a couple days ago with DRIV--immediately after the CEO of the company finished his interview on CNBC, I shorted the stock and made some "racetrack" cash...

Cyberian Outpost Rises 74% on Internet Sales Venture (Update1) New York, Nov. 23 (Bloomberg) -- Cyberian Outpost Inc. shares rose 74 percent as it joined eight other Internet-only retailers to open ShopperConnection, an online shopping mall that links member stores and services. The shares of Kent, Connecticut-based Cyberian, which sells computer products on the Internet, rose 10 5/8 to 25 in trading of almost 9 million, almost 29 times the three-month daily average. It had the second-biggest gain on U.S. markets. The Web site, shopperconnection.com, is expected to increase customer traffic for members while lowering their marketing costs. It's designed to make the retailers more competitive against larger rivals such as No. 1 online bookseller Amazon.com Inc., which began selling music this year and videos last week. ''The network will enhance members' ability to convert impressions into revenue,'' said Steven Horen, an analyst at NationsBanc Montgomery Securities Llc, who rates Cyberian a ''buy.'' He added that Cyberian's rally today is also supported by the company's ability to meet analysts' earnings expectations, whereas other Internet-stocks have fallen short of estimates. Other members include eToys, a closely held toy retailer; Internet video-seller Reel.com Inc., which is owned by Hollywood Entertainment Corp.; Datek Online Brokerage Services Corp., the fifth-largest U.S. online brokerage; and CDnow Inc., the biggest Internet music retailer. The shares of Wilsonville, Oregon-based Hollywood rose 3/4 to 21 1/16 while shares of Jenkintown, Pennsylvania-based CDnow rose 1 5/16 to 13 1/2. Amazon shares rose 37 3/8 to 218. ShopperConnection customers will get separate bills from each retailer, though the companies are exploring a program that would allow customers to set up accounts that could be used at all member stores. quote.bloomberg.com. spider
