Hello Pezz, Dialed 1.800.GET.ME.OUT repeatedly, and got 1.900.GIVE.ME.CASH.
I sold massively, with some deliberation, but with more aggression, because it is time, I think, but hope more:
(a) Sold all ARC Energy finance.yahoo.com at CAD 18.15/shr, bought at CAD 15.35 Message 20288284
[July 7th, 2004], received mucho distributions
(b) Sold all Advantage Energy finance.yahoo.com at CAD 20.20/shr, bought at CAD 15.20 Message 18895990
[April 30th, 2003], collected lots of distributions
(c) Sold all Petro Fund finance.yahoo.com at CAD 18.05/shr, bought at CAD CAD 10.82 Message 18915962 [May 5th, 2003], harvested plenty of distributions
(d) Sold all Primewest finance.yahoo.com at CAD 29.50/shr, bought at CAD 16.15 Message 18381801 [December 30th, 2002], and aggregated a bundle of distributions
(e) Sold all Viking Energy finance.yahoo.com at CAD 7.10/shr, bought at CAD 5.24 Message 19565624 [December 5th, 2003], and took in generous distributions
(f) Sold Petro Fund in the US account finance.yahoo.com at USD 14.82, bought at USD 7.29 Message 18381801 [December 30th, 2002], and yes, plenty of you know what along the way.
(g) Sold Biogen IDEC finance.yahoo.com at USD 38.49, bought at USD 37.37 Message 21114099 [March 8th, 2005]. May buy back later.
(h) Shorted, without mercy, more JOBS finance.yahoo.com at USD (16-17?) some price as yet not reported. When I started shorting last night, the buyers scrambled, in the other direction. I had opened the original short position earlier Message 20993702 [January 28th, 2005] at USD 22 :0)
(i) Shorted, without hesitation, Google finance.yahoo.com at USD 180/shr, as I see no reason why only the insiders at Google should profit from their shares after diligent work when I can do the same, but substituting bravery for diligence.
(j) Doubled again the short position on Centex finance.yahoo.com at USD 58.2/shr, for it has no substance.
(k) Doubled again the short position on Lennar finance.yahoo.com at USD 55.37/shr, for it is not burdened with merit.
(l) Doubled again the short position on Pulte finance.yahoo.com at USD 71.53/shr, for I do not know why folks bother to own it.
I may also have sold off Blackrock Ventures and Connarcher Oil/Gas, but have not received reports. On these, a loss, but manageable one, and so will get to fight another day.
I think the dark side is the way to moolah for 2005, and I believe, perhaps wrongly, that shorting shares is a cheap way to collect that most precious of commodities, CASH.
Chugs, Jay |
