I see Mohair Mohan posted the employment cost data. -g- That was what did it - it came in at half the expected increase so no wage inflation. Which isn't really that surprising considering all the stock options being doled out these days. I just started to look at this company SNC that Mohan wants to short. Their net income of .28/share turns into a loss of -.20/share if you consider the options. But who cares, right?
