Patrick & Sandy:

I’m not a stock market expert but I do have 20 yrs in franchising. Michael makes some pretty astute observations about Noble Roman’s. Most financial writers don’t have a clue as to the internal dynamics of a troubled franchise chain. I’ll give him a tip of the hat for that.

Michael,
Thank you for the column, I was happy to read it and it says a lot for many of the people that have had a less than positive encounter with Noble Roman’s. It seems as though the heat in NROM’s kitchen is turning up.

Well, the only problem with that is that I was not short, I was long. And it was a day trade (on which I actually lost money, even though the stock ended up 20% that day). So for three days before this article I had no position in NROM. And I still don’t have any position in it. While I violated my own policy, I certainly did not violate any laws.

what kind of stock writer are you???… you sell the stock than say “oops” and that you’re short the stock…
if I didn’t know any better, they’re might be some lawyers sending you some interesting mail sooner than later

I find that I am better at finding bad companies than at finding good companies. For example, since I praised Frederick’s of Hollywood, the stock has tanked:

Do you ever write anything positive about companies, or do you just like bashing everyone??
