we must each consider when we are going to exit

This is very difficult. Several weeks ago, I was thinking of covering YHOO for a small loss, at 59. I wish I had covered. I wish I'd gone long. But I hoped that the tide had turned, and the stock would drop to where I'd have a gain.

If YHOO again drops to 59, will I have the courage to remain flat, or will I cover and exit flat, after months of absorbing pain?

Is it reasonable to expect that some of these shorts will fall 90%, based on valuation alone (excluding the stocks that have some fraudulent aspect)?

IMPX went from 1 1/2 on 3/16/95 to 23 1/2 on 5/7/96, a run-up even more impressive than YHOO's and AMZN's. Now it's at 1 3/32. Can the same thing happen to YHOO, AMZN, et al?
