>It's not the fact that you are short the stock... Huh? I first bought this stock in January, 1998, at $22.125/share. I held for about a year, selling recently for a huge profit. I sold because I think it got a bit over-bought - a bit high. Since then I've also traded it a few times, all at a profit. I also subscribe to the ATHM service. But you said I am short the stock, so I guess none of the above really happened, and I must hate the company, oh well... Get this - there is a difference between thinking that a COMPANY is doing great, vs. liking (or not liking) the current price level of it's stock. Sometimes stock prices get decoupled from underlying reality. IMO, that just happened, and at the same time, a bunch of folks who know little about ATHM show up on the thread. It's funny, it's happened before, it gets discussed among long-time ATHM fans. That's what I was doing. Sorry if it bothered you, but CPQ has been a crappy investment for a long time, and if that makes you ill, you shouldn't invest in it (if you did).
