So how does 1900 sound to ya?:

----------------------------------------

After hearing about the CPI numbers before the market's opening together with the futures for the Dow and Nasdaq, I sold CELG shortly after the opening.

Then I watched the Nasdaq do the usual slide downward (I really thought we would finally some kind of rally today). I checked with my broker at 10:30 EST to see what was happening. The Nasdaq had recovered from -170 to -60+. I asked for some quotes, and jumped into WEBT big because of this (idiotic!!) impression that we'd see a run-up prior to earnings next week. Got in at 37 1/4 thinking I'd try and make 7 points. OH LUCKY ME! It fell by the close to 31+ and is showing a bid of 29.

I'm beginning to think I'm a lightening rod for bad luck. It was about this same time last year that I took some real hits to the downside, too.

Probably not going to be around much this weekend. Hope its a good one for ya.

Later,

Mike

P.S. Can traders and/or investors draw welfare? <gg>
