Well, I did go ahead and take a position in BGP today.

Didn't think it was a "fast moving market", so I entered a market order. There was a delay of about 15 minutes when I couldn't get a confirmation and boom, when it shows up there I got it at 16 3/4, high for the am so far. About a point higher than I was willing to settle for today, and nearly two points higher than I had been willing to settle for two days ago. This was 50% my impatience and 50% I don't know what. I got a funny feeling as the confirmation took longer and longer to come back. Value investors aren't supposed to have to worry about this stuff.

Mike
