  2. With 14 million shares outstanding ( 9.3 million float ) looks like we now have a market cap of:

    $1.2 Billion

    i like the action for my short.

    average price at 86.

    it's going to be like falling off a cliff. IMHO

  4. This won't be an easy short. Better have some big cash reserves on the line in order to end this trade successfully.

  7. Great move to the downside ina matter of a few minutes. When this thing really blows up it will be great, assuming you are short or have a few puts.

  8. Normally not, but indicative of a dramatic rise in option(implied) volty on TASR. For good reason, the stat-volty in the shares has exploded as well. Options are priced in volatility-terms.

    I've seen stocks rally and puts increase in value(stock falls/calls rally). The option players are attempting to find a fair value for the implied volty line, and they're following the stat-volty here -- hence the recent rise in implied volty which has exceeded stat-volty.

  9. Yes, but with a supercharged bungee cord. Better get ready to cover before all the other short slobs.

  10. Nice intraday sell off in Tasr. Hope, there is no one out with a overnight long position in TASR these days.
