Well, a lesson learned well can benefit you from there on.
Dell usually had big runups into splits--I remember 108 being almost the high before the "bad" news. That's why it's usually wise to add to any position on pullbacks rather than runups...
Best of luck. Your puny amount, whatever it may be, would be a fortune to most of the world
If we could shrink the earth's population to a village of precisely 100
people,
with all the existing human ratios remaining the same, it would look
something like the following. There would be:
57 Asians
21 Europeans
14 from the Western Hemisphere, both north and south America
8 Africans
52 would be female
48 would be male
70 would be non-white
30 would be white
70 would be non-Christian
30 would be Christian
89 would be heterosexual
11 would be homosexual
6 people would possess 59% of the entire world's wealth and all 6 would be
from the United States.
80 would live in substandard housing
70 would be unable to read
50 would suffer from malnutrition
1 would be near death; 1 would be near birth
1 (yes, only 1) would have a college education
1 would own a computer
When one considers our world from such a compressed perspective, the
need for both acceptance, understanding and education becomes glaringly
apparent."
