ECEC is a BB stock. Most brokers won't let you short them. And they are so manipulated that shorting them is dangerous. Look at ICCAC (though it has been temporarily re-listed). Swings wildly on no volume. PRBZ is still a good short IMHO, along with GBUR. ENMD, VVUS and ZONA are a little crazier each for their own reasons. Check this out from CNNfN. What a riot! "How well are stock funds doing overall? According to Mutual-Fund Forecaster, not so well. In fact, the performance of about 4,000 domestic and international stock funds that the newsletter tracks fell short of safe money market funds over the last 19 months, Fosback. The equity funds earned 6.5 percent on average in that time, compared with 7 percent for money market funds, he said. "I think it's shocking," Fosback said. "On balance, it's been a falling tide for the market as a whole except for a few large cap stocks. The same is true for mutual funds."
