Yaacov. I believe we have more men over here that like to dress in women's clothes than you have in your country. Maybe that's the reason the ladies now like slacks so much. gg. Nah. Probably not. I took it easy today. Didn't buy or sell a single thing. That's what you call going down to the wire. I knew it. The minute I want to sell some of my losers, they are moving up. So I decided to give it one more day. I have to sell something or I get hit with a nice tax bill. I should not have sold my Yahoo earlier this month. But I guess there are worse things in life than having to pay taxes on your profits. You lucky guy. You don't have this cap gain tax problem over there. You can keep it all. gg. Tomorrow should be interesting. Some of my long term stocks like VRSN and RNWK were up nicely and then took a hit late today. I guess someone needs some profits to offset losses. Too bad they are doing it with some of my stocks. Let's touch base tomorrow and see how we are making out with selling. I actually was tempted to buy a cpl of things today but quenched my urge. Like I said yesterday. You can't reduce your margin if you keep on buying. BTW. Maybe there will be no selling in late January and beginning of Feb. So many analysts are calling for it. The market does not always comply. It did not this year and chased most of the human bears off the surface of the Earth. I think that all the major markets, maybe even the little ones, finished this year up with big gains. So much for that doomsday talk last fall and earlier this year. I am sure glad that I resisted all the calls of an overbought market and stayed put. I am holding the rest of my tech stocks. Only some odd and end little internet stocks will be on the chopping block. I am already sorry that I listened to that doomsday talk earlier this month on NOVL. The last cpl of months all you heard was that a lot of the top brass was leaving the company like rats leave a sinking ship. And now the stock is up 50% from where I sold it. Ok. That was my last moaning for this year. gg. Did you ever buy NOVL? Sonny
