Man, RETK really ticked me off. (a story with morals)

I bought early at 34 and again at 30 on thursday.. All afternoon it wallowed around 31 and 32.. I even posted here about 30 min after it opened and nobody responded.. I got a lot of "other opportunities out there today". No one wanted to touch it due to the coverage from Piper Jeffries..

Finally around 2:30 I got the opportunity to get out at a small loss and I took it. Later after a short break I get here and all I read is RETK RETK RETK.. Seems Kimberly recommended it around 3 or something.. Then everyone was on board and talking it up.. I ended up missing out on a 2500 dollar gain because i'm a goof..

The point of the story is.. Stick with your picks and have confidence in yourself.. We can all make picks like Kimberly every once in a while IF we just believe in ourselves.

Thanks to the thread for confirming my thought.. Just wish I'd had enough confidence in myself to have held it..

No brainer? Mar$ said it was a thing of beauty....can a stock be
both beautiful and brainy?.....things that make ya go hmmmmmmmm....
The fly in the proverbial ointment on RETK was Jefferies' ridiculous target of $25.....is this legal? Well whatever, keep pounding....market has a long history of rallying big time-leading up to Thanksgiving-according to my archival research...must be 'cuz it's my birthday.

REVISED CHRISTMAS FORECAST FOR BGST (11/21/99)

BGST will hit its year high during either the last two weeks of November or during the first two
weeks of December.

The year high will be $25-$35 a share.

It should be noted that, immediately prior to the earnings announcment for the fourth quarter in
January, BGST's share price will probably exceed its 1999 year high achieved during the last
two weeks of November or the first two weeks of December.

The recent downtrend to $4 a share provided an excellent opportunity to stockpile more
shares as I hope most of you chose to do. I strongly urge all current and potential investors to
review the recents press releases and earnings announcements. After doing this research, it
should be blatantly obvious why the estimates I have presented here are well within
expectations. I remind you that BGST's market capitalization is hilariously cheap in
comparison to their competitors. Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year,
and good luck to us all!
