Re: NE continues to slide

well at this point i am not able to say anything to anyone. it has been a very difficult year. i did not mind underperforming when the market was charging ahead, but assumed incorrectly i would do better than the market when it turned down. that was the plan anyway. did not work.

my latest scheme to reduce my tax burden by losing money was a purchase this morning of some ATPG bonds. i have been out of ATPG for several weeks. i am getting beat up on all my other O&G things, and it just does not seem right to not also get beat up by ATPG. bonds very active today. when i went to FINRA to see my trade, it was on the third page already. amazing how much the bonds have dropped in a week. common has not so well either. the preferred has held up more than would seem justified by the action in bonds and common. seems like the preferred is at least 5 points and more like 10 points rich at last trade, compared to last time the common and bonds were around this level, IIRC.
