Discipline forced me to cover today

I'm sorry, but I had to cover at $78 this morning.
I can't believe after that cautious report we heard
from Meg earlier this week, the fund managers like
CSFB are still recommending this stock. Either they
are a lot stupider then we are, or they know something
we don't. Since they get paid a hell of a lot for
their opinions, I have to believe they are not stupid.

I need to conserve my capitol for any war-event
related rally, so I'll have to watch from the
sidelines for now. Good Luck everyone with your
positions. To those who may think my covering
is a contrary indicator, I'll only tell you this.
The last time I shorted and was forced to cover
was short at $63 and covered $67. You do the math.

I won't reshort until there is a lot more volume
in this stock. Watching shorts and coverers feed
this stock every higher, while institutional longs
just laugh from the sidelines, and insiders get to
dump their options ever higher is getting ridiculous.

I'm just sick to my stomach that such an
over valued over hyped over optioned stock
can be allowed to get away with this kind
of run without more realistic scrutiny
3 years into our post "bubble" market.
