thanks! This has been one of those week where every $100 gain could have been $1000.. I bailed out of CIEN early in the AM, and as you know it never looked back.. I hate that.. Than, I bought into WEN on the gap down and made an instant few hundred- only to see 5 minutes later it was up over 1 1/2 from where I sold it.. argh

now my money is sitting in a little known pharm. company called ISIP.. when the market gets a bit ahead of itself like it is now, I like to go back to overlooked, stagnant investments and at the very least hold for a day or two in hopes of short covering when the rest of the market takes a breather.

I stayed away from CIEN after my AM gap- someone has a lid on this thing and once again just like the last time it is so controlled its unreal.

im shocked by the overall market performance. I may take a breather myself next week, and wait for a pullback.. I really dont make all that much money when the market is positive like this. I need panic, fear, anything to make people sell their holdings for much less than the day before. Wendys was perfect for that today- I only wish I didnt have that same panic to sell sell sell so damn fast fast fast!

Tim- im sure you saw XYLN today? I tried to chase it, and it moved about 3/4 in about 5 minutes. Finally I said the hell with it and went to lunch..

have a nice weekend everyone!
