Google Secrets to be Revealed

Not about its PageRank but its financial secrets. CNN reports that Google is still playing its cards close to its chest. Some interesting points from the article include:

* On Tuesday Google's underwriters will be able to initiate coverage on the the company's stock.
* Regarding a new Google browser...a Google spokesman did weigh in, saying that Google was not planning to "reinvent the wheel" when it comes to browsing technology.
* The spokesman also said Monday afternoon that the company will report its third quarter earnings on Oct. 21 -- the quarter ends on Thursday. But none of the analysts CNN/Money spoke to Monday morning were aware of this date.
* According to figures released by the Nasdaq on Monday, 4.1 million of Google's shares were being held short as of mid-September. That amounts to more than 21 percent of the stock's available float.
