SHLD is a woofer..total POS stock that probably ends up being taken over for scraps.

VVUS is interesting, I owned it as either my first or second covered call stock back in like 1998, it was 5 bucks then. Ever since I always keep my eye on it. This weight loss drug could turn it into another DNDN and a double plus from here..

SHLD is an absolute dog, and not sure I understand the recent love for the stock.

Its decision to close lots of stores is an admission of Eddie Lampert's failure to turn-around the Kmart-Sears story.

It got clobbered in Q4 numbers... and is getting owned at both ends by the likes of Macy's , Penney's , and Target.

Its days are numbered.

total dog, what does that mean? 

the love for the stock is keyed into the insiders and major shareholders.

whenever a stock goes from 100$ to 40$ there is a major shakeup. you have to notice it right away and take a risk. i got a 20% return and skipped town. there were no shares to short jumping the stock anther 15%.

its figuring out when to buy. NFLX did this too. the smart money figures out when to buy.
