A significant new technology will win out regardless of shorts, longs, analysts, and so forth. Negative postings on web sites can of course move a stock, but if the stock has good underlying strength, a concerted campaign of disparagement will only lead to a short squeeze, yes ? The article in Barron's about Par Chadra certainly had a crushing effect on Osicom's stock, but if sales had been strong at that point it would not have had lasting effect. As it turned out, sales were weak, and the "Asian Flu" mini-crash followed the Barron's article made recovery in the share price impossible. The recovery from that period was as we all know, very narrowly based in stocks like Cisco, Dell, Microsoft... all the usual premium tech names. NOW seems to be the time for Osicom ! Regards, Harlock
