I maintain my previous bearish stance. The numbskulls on this company's board don't have a clue.

All of the above is just my humble opinion, of course. ;^)

BTW, I love the symbol CHARD. They couldn't have come up with something more apt if they had tried.

Speaking of apt symbols...WasteMasters, Inc. (Nasdaq:WAST) recently became WASTE.

BTW, anyone doing analysis on the "E" stocks? It's that time of year...

"CHARD is a fine specimen in every way, except the spread."

Wow, that is a whopper of a spread. 10 3/4 x 19 1/2. Of course one can use the Manning rules to narrow the spread. Put in an order to sell at 18 or 18 1/2, it has to be represented to the market. Of course someone has to want to buy it from you.

How do you like your shorts? Rare, Medium or CHARD? LOL!

I shorted some Rare Medium (RRRR) at 15 1/2, I was a little slow this morning. CHARD doesn't appear to have traded at all today, although the bid is up to 18. And speaking of BIDS, the daytraders are driving it up once again. Is this the next EBay? Purely speculative gamble in which I have both actual and paper profits.
