FCA Vertical Market Seminar Series

The Fibre Channel Association is kicking off a vertical market seminar series in Dec. starting with Wall Street. Can't think of a better place to start, as FC enabled SAN's develop into an investment theme. Sector moves can be very powerful.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in this truly marvelous country.

[even to industry association PR people who can't get the names of their member companies correct <g> ]

Greg,

I was also encouraged by the reduction in the ANCR short interest. (FINALLY!) Since it appears likely that the shorts will simply convert, rather than buy on the open market, I'm not expecting a major short squeeze. (I suppose there could be some regular shorts too, but they probably won't cover until/if we get some news.)
