Corinthian Colleges, Inc. (Public, NASDAQ:COCO)

The educational company broke past resistance on a surge in volue 2 weeks ago and briefly traded above the 2006 high of 15.36. Now that the stock has backed off those highs and consolidated it looks ready for a steadier climb higher. I'm thinking the stock can make up to at least 20/share, but with 10.7 million shares short and most of them likely losing money things could get very exciting on the upside! I don't see any reson for a stop of more than about a dollar.
