WTSherman,

In reviewing your postings to SI, I notice that you are a most opinionated person and are not shy about posting them. On just about every topic or company under the sun. Based on a quick review of your relevant prognostications, such as "A fair price for FORE is somewhere around 5x trailing revenues. This would make the buyout price about $30. More than that seems very unlikely given their earnings," ( Message 9095013 ), I don't think I can rely on what you have to say. Shocking, I know.

P.S. Congratulations on being elected spokesman for "the street."

I have been in with a small position since July. This is just small position traders, there were some large blocks Today. If it does not sell off Tomorrow There might be something brewing here. CS has very good products, just horrible management, look what happened to Pfeiffer at CPQ, Benson is probably under increased pressure here to find a buyer. By Yahoo board sounds like a large short position, if buyout hits squeeze will be big. I was in FORE for about a month, Today was real nice.

Well, the reality is that the fish has been dead for a long time and smells pretty damn bad. There won't be a lot of buyers banging at the CS door.

Just a twist on words here.
Dead Salmon "smells pretty damn bad"
but they leave many eggs behind.
And the "Bears" love Salmon
