Short Squeeze Picks

I may own some of the stocks below. Invest at your own risk.

Cerner (NASDAQ: CERN) (42.7% Short)
Great company that makes software (electronic medical records) for hospitals. Very profitable. Earns premiums annualy from customers plus the intial cost of the contract. Just won a big contract in Europe. Over 40% of the float is short. Earnings growth of 22-30%. Stock goes over $80 in 2006.

Dynamic Material (NASDAQ: BOOM) (21.3% Short)
Company has two divisions, explosive metal working and aerospace. Very interesting company with no analyst coverage. Stock has had a monster run from $2.77 to over $40. Trades at 54 times trailing earnings.

Parlux Fragrances (NASDAQ: PARL) (54.3% Short)
Perfume company with real earnings. Just reported a blowout qtr. I think the stock goes higher. Wish I owned it. Going to be making Paris Hilton perfume/bags. High margin business with high growth prospects.

Forword Industries (NASDAQ: FORD) (24.2% Short)
Another very profitable company that makes bags and accessories. Founded in 1954. Stock has also had a huge move from $2 to $23. Still a very interesting play.

Turbochef (AMEX: TCF) (42.5% Short)
Symbol changes to OVEN on Nasdaq effective 6/20/05. Makes the toaster ovens at Subway. A high growth business with the current toasted sub trend. The company is looking to win some big contracts and soon put out a model so you can toast subs in your own home.
