The Rock is a serious turnon for any true female. Also has a lovely brain to go with it, unusual.

SGI didn't disappoint me, I just spooked and lost out on a true stellar run, and don't have the commission level to jump in and out like a trading maniac. The truth is I understand very, very, very few actually end up in the true black.

So, just waiting here. Rather than sell what I have, I will probably buy in and average, but only on an obvious turn around. I do need to call Doug again too. IR reps tend to lie, but their tone of voice is telling.

Several years ago one stock I jump in and out of, which does not look like it will truely recomver--GMGC--had a rep whose voice tone warned me of very serious damage to come, although the wording was canned same-o, same-o. I jumped out right in time. Careful attention to charts etc keeps one from dumping more into a falling knife. We can always hope, anyway. This is a very serious game as you know.

Of those we have discussed here, I only own this one. But Watchbird is definitely watching all of them.

If this slides below $2.40, I will probably sell and wait for a true basement sale. An excellent book I'm reading
states categorically that MM's, institutions and fund managers can pressure companies to stagger the "news"announcements to their advantage, and keep walking things down until they can once again make a zillion on a quick run up. The only problem is, when do you know when it's just that and not that the company is actually slowly dying.

Therein lies the secret to being a billionauire.

But wait!!!!! this thing is back to the $2.50 I was waiting for.....hummmmm......Remember the bumper sticker, "So many men, so little time..." Same for stocks.
This is a time consuming obsession.
