Dumped my 850 shares this morning at 33 7/8 when I saw the market turn......

I have since repurchased 200 at 31 5/8 and another 200 at 31 7/16.....In theory, I took some losses (shares purchased at 34 and change and 36 and change.....)but I made a ton off of the shares purchased at 18 and change.....

The IRS doesn't give a damn about the losses since I repurchased within 30 days......

However, I avoided losing more......I didn't want a margin call........I preserved a great deal of my capital and lived to fight another day......

There is still a great deal of upside so I can jump in and grab some points later......I will reestablish my long-position at these levels and will trade the rest of the shares that I purchase later....if it goes up or down, I will purchase more......this company, as always, is undervalued and the price decline is not warranted.
