I'm not a world-class technician.. but I can take one look at the chart of that POS and see it is about to CRASH!! even if I didn't know what I know about the rest of the mkt.

"Technically the stock appears to be acting great and we are quite likely on the cusp of breaking to new high ground. Take a look at the stock in this chart and note:"

now even the technicians are stupid? What are we going to next? dumb astro people who can't read star charts? -g-

I loved the comment about the bear funds.. "window dressing"

HO HO HO

watch out over the next couple weeks... short sellers will get the blame for the crash instead of where it should go... to the foolishness of bulls.

dave-that is a very naive view.first,no one i know tries to mark positions down besides it would be too hard .bears have little ammo vs bulls and there is the uptick rule.it is very easy for big funds to mark them up though.as far a losing investors most private funds only have a couple times a year that people can exit the fund so that too is a a non starter.(in my case specifically if i had an opening i would be getting money NOT seeing flow out.)i find it laughable that anyone would show their total ignorance of how things work with a silly post like that.maybe you can forward this to whomever posted that bit of drivel .thanks bill

That guy always blames "the evil shorts" anytime CYMI goes down. When Cymi was on its way to new lows last October, he convinced some Professor of Finance guy to keep holding and not to sell because the "evil shorts" were manipulating the stock. Eventually, the professor guy finally sold near the bottom for a 100K loss. I wonder who the greater fool is - him or the professor guy.
