Hello Auric,

Short of the day: CPQ. Anybody who buys IBUY is off their rocker!

You could be right, eventually, but today CPQ is up about two points (just looked it was up 3). The bottom line is that today you are wrong -bad wrong. I am aware of some of your thoughts and respect you for being an intelligent person. However something is wrong with your timing or thinking. I recently suffered from the same problem when I tried to short AMZN at 98 many many points ago. I can admit I made a mistake and profit from it.

I do not currently have a position in CPQ or IBUY but I am long CMGI one of the ones you figured would fall 40% (a few weeks ago about 200 points lower than it is today). Sure it is risky it may fall 40% one of these days, big deal it is up 200% already. So could many other stocks, bonds or futures that are thought to be risk free. Long term capital hedge fund failure is an example of this.

You may want to wise up and rethink you position and then get the hell out of the way of that internut freight train. Clean off your glasses and put them back on, do you see that train coming into focus in the distance yet?

PS maybe you should bother to read up about CMGI study all of its web pages and look at the people who are running its many companies.

Regards,

KW Wingman
