I presume you are kidding, but some may take your "joking" more seriously than you intend it, which could only seriously increase your blood pressure.
Could WCII revisit teens? Of course it could. Surprised ME when we didn't hold $35. Who knows how stained dresses/Saddam/Asia/talking heads will effect the market short term. I suggest you start selling a little into occasional strength (like today's move to 32) so that you have some cash to cover margin calls IF they occur.
The market may shake out those of us who overcommitted to the recent bull move, but IMO, the safe time frame to consider conservatively doubling to tripling your money in WCII is 18-24 months. So if you sell out 1/4 to 1/3 of your position now to be able to cover potential margin calls (and I would be surprised if your average price were in the 40s), then your loss should be HANDILY made up.
But IMO, make a decision, get a grip and be glad you aren't Bill Clinton. If you went short, you MAY get a move down near term, but I don't get how continually crying here about how much you've lost does any good. You aren't shaking out anyone who knows this story, and trying to scare a few small fish out (if that is at all what you are currently about) isn't worth the time or annoyance to the thread.
A lot of us newer to the story (buying stock and options from 20s-40s) are down, and I can promise you neither the size nor percentage of your losses are unique. |
