i have not shorted a single stock, yet
missed a few on the long side today, darn

bought cpq after carefully considering the dynamic with AV and CMGI

dd was my own and somewhat sparse as financial statements of all three companies may require a few more people with more experience than me to figure this out

you're mistaken somewhat, again

don't take it personally, as i think you will
your previous posts show a bias towards polarization
good bad, us them, etc...

idtc is a turd, not because it has considerable sales, but because its product is being commoditized, its approached has fossilized, and to summarize a few longs 'dumping the IPO will get rid of a loser'.

does that make idtc any less a turd?
no, imho
but that's what it is, jmho

if you feel good by being right wonderful, but idtc and the market owe you nothing and pinning your selfworth on either may not be prudent

just a thought
ynot :)

As far as the reference to garbage I was refering to "ideas or picks", many threads attempt to discuss too many stocks. What you might refer to as garbage in your response I see as color commentary. Its adds a bit of excitement to a normally boring task.
Concerning what individuals do or don't do in reaction to what they read here or elsewhere is their business. It's foolish to buy or sell on what appears on any SI thread without fully understanding what one is getting into Period. I follow this thread for strictly one reason......good picks!
