John; It's not just the dividend I was talking about, it's the effect it "may" have , were those pennies don't look like much to you , to some big players they could add up..and you wind up getting caught in that updraft..there are some big boys in the game and you can bet they are already ahead a lot, some of them against the box..you are at their mercy ..we are all minnows in this ..if they decide she has bottomed it won't make a hoot what we think, chance are some of them have set the 26th as a yea or na day..if it's ya..then forget the pennies.. as that will be the least of your loss. What do you think the big boys will think, just watch the 26th is all I'm really saying..to any short term short or trader. we are talking about a lot of shares not just 2000. Jim Ps Surely you've heard the story about the man who bent down to pick up a penny when he saw one..vs the man who thought they were nothing. BTW Brokerage houses don't laugh at pennies.. But being you have more money and are so much smarter than they are I guess it's ok for you to laugh at them.
