Paper trading...

Short OMX $52.25 (Picks of the Quarter, April 2nd)
Short GOOG $475 (ouch, bad guess today)
Short ERTS $53.5 (also today, April 20th)
Short DNA $82.2 ditto
Short RHD $78.25 ditto

The four new short ideas I am mulling over for
entering into the PoQ contest at the end of the
month. I am 80% cash and 20% short Officemax in that
as of now, despite the following notes:


Unlimited downside risk
Requires a margin account and borrowing shares on margin
Lender is reimbursed for dividends
If it's an individual stock, you can guess the market right
and still lose


That is why you do it on paper;-)

Meanwhile this week...
