FIBR has outperformed AMZN over last three months. I took a big loss with FIBR last summer, but I'm back in because their technology appears to me to be winning the Dense Wave Division Multiplexing war. Look at a year chart of FIBR vs CIEN ! It's the technology that matters... not the postings of any person with a long or short position, Par's gaffs, etc...

Bruce, would you care to show me where I have represented my posts to be for the protection of other investors? Where was I when the stock was 2? Right here behind my computer playing other stocks. I post my opinions of the company here for what they're worth, it is up to you to decide whether they make any sense or not. Just as you probably do. I posted that I was long when I was long, and posted when I reversed my position. I am not ‘running away' from my posting history. Folks like you are trying to twist my past posts into something they are not. " I surmise this stock showed up your screen because of rapid ascendancy ... Aha - I know this stock's history & lets short it again.. " Yes, I suppose you could say that. The point of the stock market is to buy low and sell high. Since I think this is as high as the price is going to go, it is a logical time to sell. Also it is true that Osicom's sordid past weighs in the decision to sell it short. My opinion is that management is more important than the technology. Yours is the opposite. I don't see any indication that things are different at FIBR HQ. I'm not sure how you think that Cambrian's being bought out means FIBR is worth 40. Cambrian was private, and so comps are difficult. One must look at the facts and make one's own judgement. I have done so, and my judgement is that a short sale is warranted, as close to 18 7/8 as possible. Please note that there willl be someone on the other side of the trade just as sure that it's the right thing to do. In the end, my opinion is that fundamental value will be reflected in the stock price. Barb
