The IGLD play was to get in on a pop when the MSN Isreal website opened. The site was suppossed to open on 12/1, but it didn't. Therefore, the short-term play ended on 12/1, anyone who held afterwards was just speculating that the website would open sooner or later and the stock would get a pop. I have to say that I'm really surprised that it popped so high today. Kim is usually pretty clear about her reasons for buying a stock. Just interpret the play, based on what she says when she buys.

OT: I think your message was right on, Barbara, as far as the fact that most of us have far from limitless pockets. However, in fairness, Kimberly has been saying for some time her picks are position plays, not for the first day or so after she posts it, and that people need more patience. In fact, she'll explicitly say when a pick is a pure mania pick. So I'm in the same boat as you: held IGLD for some time but finally moved on - and it was right at the time, though it doesn't seem so today...but that's stock playin' life. I've sold several of K's and others' picks too soon because I saw other opportunities and I think if I went back and analysed on an opportunity cost basis my decisions would mostly look OK. It's just hard to see something like IGLD when we had it at $12-14 a month or so ago. WUWT

C'mon Barbara. With the amount of tips put out on this board, I find Kim, BIG, tuna and a few others very reliable. I really don't think they even know when the stock is going to run. I have made decent returns over the last month that I have been following Kim and her friends. This thread has changed over the last month with a lot more people posting and hyping. Listen to Kim, she is giving away momentum plays. Most of her picks rise on the day she buys them. Play them for the day, a small gain is better than nothing.
