Dave, If someone on this thread was short a stock I am in I would sure want to know about it. I trust a lot of people here and if someone I trust sees a stock going 180 from where I think it will go, it will make me take another look.

Dave: Short sales - You are correct. For the most part I don't report my short sales because I don't want to get in a "war" with longs. The thing that I find somewhat humorous about Anthony, and he is very good at what he does, but he is a lot like Tokyo. He has so many people following him that it is more his flock that cause the price to fall than his short picking ability. I know that he hates manipulators but if you are a leading a large group of people, like Tokyo does, whether you are leading the price higher or lower, you are maniupulating. I sold ASTN today because I didn't want to fight his flock, and that is because of the selling power that they hold....not because of the prospects of ASTN. TJ
