FWIW,ASND will, by the largest margin,beat the street this month and also with the Stratus disposition be around 100 per share very soon.

<Combined with last quarter statement and insider sellings, it just paint a not creditable picture for ASND to be a big player in the future. I, too, take a wait and see attitude towards their stock. This thread has high hype for ASND. Just make sure that ASND is going to meet those high expectations!>

Mike,
I heard these arguments at $22 a share. $49 a share later you want to make sure that ASND meets the high expectations of this thread before investing in it. It may take a price of $300 a share to convince you of ASND's legitimacy, but having held 500 shares down to $22 and back up to $71+, In my opinion it seems pretty legitimate.
As for Stratus sale, they haven't sold it and the stock is at $71.Are you saying that if they don't sell by a certain date the stock is going to crash? Do you have a point to make or do you just want to trash the stock and this thread?

Thank you,
Jim Ray

Judy and Mike, (the CSCO hypsters.) If you are ignorant about ASND's future you don't need to make foolish statements here. All your arguments are unsound and baseless. Right now smart money is buying ASND. All the dumb ignorant and sheepish crowds are buying hype like CSCO, AMZN. When ASND hits 100 all these folks jump on the bandwagon and say all nice things. Do n't forget market has a habit ignoring great companies for several quarters only to jump on it, great example was DELL. When Dell was saying business was good back in 1995, nobody believed, everyone said you can not compete with IBM and CPQ and HWP. You know rest is history. ASND is in similar situation. It is people like you boneheads who don not see the light ahead and act like a FROG in the well.

CSCO is mainly an enterprise company 75% of revenues, act like a telecom company. Where as ASND derives 95% revenues from TELCOS and ISPs and they are focused on this market like a HAWK. CSCO will never make it big in TELECOm. Only reason is that their products are full of BUGS and unreliable. TELCOS need reliablity not hyped up junk. This is only my opinion that Iam making on ASND thread. All the idiots will realize this in next 12 months. In this business todays Darlings of street(CSCO,AMZN) will become tomorrows DOGS. let CSCO steal the hype , ASND will execute.

Good luck.
