Here are some of my better headaches:
ANCR @ 27 1/4, @ 40, @ 23, @ 16 1/2, @ 6 7/8, ( it went as low as $1.00, but did I buy? ) It is now resting at 6 7/8. By averaging down, I now have thousands of shares at an average price of 23 1/4. Think I'll see a return soon?
Sold WMT in June of 97 @ 32. (it closed today, accounting for split shares, the equivalence of $82.00 a share
I bought shares in a company called "intercell" INCE. They made tiny lead shields to be placed in cell phones, so as to protect our brains from micro-waves. OH, MY GOD!! What was I thinking!
Oh, here is a good one: SLB schlumberger (oil service sector ) @ $76 1/8 Price today 49.
Or then of course as soon as I bought pier one PIR @ 22 1/8 ( it's all time high) It began it's plummet to today's close of 8 5/16. I say it mentioned today on CNBC as a stock that had been beaten down sooo low, it was recommended as a contrarian buy!
Thats all I want to confess, it makes me ill. I must go now, I'm off to buy GOLD @288 an Oz. |
