<1) I can't understand why "buy and hold" types even hang out on these threads--seems
contradictory. I suspect they've got their fingers twitching right along with the traders, or
they'd be reading Vanity Fair instead of SI. >

I did some trading in 1998 and paid like the dickens for in on 4/15/99. Am working to keep my trading to a minimum now. Still find these threads *VERY* useful as I tweak my portfolio, add promising stocks, occasionally daytrade, etc.

< 2) I'm a very novice trader, and I've made some nice profits going in and out of CMGI
over the past 2 months. I never touched it until it hit 183, and I've bought as high as
244. Today I bought at 233 and expect to make 10 to 20 points tomorrow. On the
other hand, if I lose 40 points tomorrow, I'll still be way ahead of the game. >

Sounds like a lot of work! Been there, done that. Too each one's own. Good trading. Rob
