To change the subject from shorts to insiders, did you see biz.yahoo.com ? The CEO selling 60 000 shares in January at 56 ! Pre-split I watch insiders, but more for amusement. He does not need the cash, even if he had an ugly daughter getting married. So, I can only see the rationale that he sells a certain fraction every quarter, no matter what. Does not try market timing, just diversifies. That would not be irrational. But it is amusing to look at those trades in hindsight.

How much more money do the VISX shorts have to lose before they realize the longs have already won??

Chip Hunter, the following are several of your posts from last week, are you still short? Have you covered? Are you still out there? I'm short and loaded..... Can't wait for this week!! ajs we'll see how much of an idiot I am this week when VISX is 15 to 20 points lower than the close on friday!! Just give me a little time and I will be proven right my friend... Looking forward to this week and the weeks ahead!! Kevin talk about drinking.... You have to be kidding about this company being a 40 billion dollar company!!! I'm glad I'm short with longs like yourself.... You sir are EUPHORIC to the EXTREME!! You will be the first one crying saying I should not have become so GREEDY...This is what the GREEDY bulls will be saying when this stock is sitting at 35 soon in my opinion. Kevin when bulls become EUPHORIC and they think the stock will keep going to the moon without a correction this is when I short like there is no tomm... Its a SLAM DUNK!! I'll talk to you again at 35 Kevin!! Have I said anything to you or anybody else about the past?? NO I JUST SHORTED THIS STOCK FRIDAY BASED ON THE CHARTS!! Kevin I short based on the charts not the PAST FUNNYMENTALS my friend. What squeeze?? Whats so special about the 14th... They just preannounced their earnings were going to be better than expected!! The only squeeze will be the longs getting margin calls on the way down my friend.... Should be fun and profitable for the shorts!! Absolutely wrong, this stock is breaking down and if you knew how to read charts properly you would see it too... This will turn out to be a false breakout Kevin. When they preannounced the earning expectations last week all this did is pull the last remaining bulls in before the tumble down!! Kevin there are no bulls left to buy VISX in my opinion based on the charts my friend. By the time you and others see VISX as an short it will be too late and I will be covering with a major profit Kevin!! You see I like shorting before most see it as an obvious short... You see Kevin when most see VISX as an obvious long I know its too late to go long!! See you at 35 Kevin
