To All,
Just tuned into the thread since I posted in the wee hours for help. Thanks so much to all of you who immediately posted to help.
For what it's worth, I did NOT sell this morning, against my broker's judgement who wanted me to lose the shares immediately. Instead, I bought 1000, at 8 1/8, higher than most of you, as I came in too early, within the first hour of trading. Even so, with a new basis of around 10ish, I feel that I can hold, and wait.
It hurts to have missed the sell at 13 yesterday, trying to get 13 1/8 when I should've been very satisfied with the 13. As a friend of mine has said, "Pigs get fed, hogs get slaughtered." (Hi, Jim! :] ) So, I have only myself to blame on that one. Next time....
So sorry for those who are in much higher than my original 11 3/4...I know the feeling, and misery loves company. Still, I am anxious to find out the true estimates from the analysts, to see how far we are off of the mark. Also, between now & earnings, we have this month to boost revenues, correct? This may help to make the ultimate announcement a little less devastating, plus, the worst is hopefully over with the dump today, unless the market really sells off at year's end.
Just my opinions...my day trade is now a longer term hold. :) Can't take any losses now, already dumped my dogs, so fortunately, this one is the only eye sore for me at the moment. :)
Best of luck to all of us,
Thanks for the informative posts & good advice,
Vicki |
