Roger, glad to hear you're ITM now - hope you make out well with your short! You've taken a lot of flak for it. You maintain your composure very well and professionally. Shorting these is all in the timing and I would tend to agree today may have been a good time to short. FWIW I would have covered by EOD.

I got the feeling the tone of that TSC column:
thestreet.com
was bearish on YHOO. We'll see what develops since lately negatives have been ignored.

Good luck to you and good trading to all.

Roger, I also have committed to shorting the net. I believe yesterday stretched the bubble to almost bursting point and the upside is very manageable. The downside shall be very rewarding.

F.Y.I. we are discussing AMZN and Norway elsewhere: <s>

Roger, if you can make money shorting a stock like AMZN, which has been shooting up like a rocket, then you can make money shorting any stock. You are a timing genius. Why don't you post your trades real time as you enter them? It would even help your trading, as you would be automatically frontloading those who, like myself, would be imitating your trades.

Regards.

Fernando
