Actually, the low on that Friday prior to my post (which was on Saturday) was #34.84, only recently it got under than number, a long time since November second. In the meanwhile, though, after that post it rarely got under $35 ($34.39 on 11/23), but then toward the end of November it would have put the squeeze on many short when it exceeded $46 (it did not go to $50, but the breach of $41 did indeed lead to a big run to $46). Only back in late January, well after my "to the Hills call" did KLAC get back under $35, i would say that warning on November 2 not to short a snorter was as good an advice as the advice I am giving now not to short EXPE (or at least have a stop in the $70.50/70.1 area. Earlier this months we had the same thing, and I kept saying, if it breaches $63.50 you should be out of the shorts, now at $70, those shorted from under $63 and not stopped out have some real "pain" to deal with. That does not mean that the Barron's article could not finally induce a major downdrift, but for not, the $63.5/$65 area will probably see many shorts coming to this stock's rescue.
