O.T. Just pulled a quote -- !@#$!#@. We bought in August at 27.25 (a price I was upset with--my husband does not give broker a limit price EVER). Sold balance of stock Wednesday under $20 ($18?). We had sold 1/2 of IDTC holdings the previous week along with some other bad picks to raise $ for investment in movie. Last Monday when it was over 20, I expected my husband to sell the last 1/2, but he did not. Instead he sold on Wednesday when it was down again -- I was none too pleased! He also sold a couple of other stocks, along with some--not all--of our CMGI (over my strong objection) because of the CNBC a.m. insider trader segment. He was only supposed to buy back our MCOM which he sold by mistake.

I have to watch him like a hawk -- he unloaded all the Cisco at $92 in January on that stupid line in their 10Q report, and I had to pay $120 to buy it back days before they announced their split! Just like he sold InfoSpace in November, 1 week after we bought it. I just found out he sold it--thought we had 2X as many shares now and would have 4x with the recently announced split. Today he came in and asked how much QCOM was right now and showed me a JDSU proxy and report where they have asked to increase shares from 600,000,000 to 3Billion. I was frantic he was going to sell BOTH!!! Fortunately, he was just information gathering, this time.

He still did not buy back MY MCOM. They report on Wednesday and I think they are going to split!

Sorry for this long non-CWAHF post.
