Rande, I know LU is not dead-just groggy(I hope). Still holding 300 shares and would love to add when they wake up. My fear is that they were too aggressive in their sales and acctg. practices and this could weigh heavily on the stock 6-12 months out. With the fabulous opportunities the market is giving us now I have chosen to reallocate to stocks with more return and risk potential. I want LU to show me that they will not deteriorate into a slow grower. They need to maintain and increase their competitive edge in these rapidly changing market enviroments. These are heady times and the choices are incredible. Have taken your advice since joining SI and am taking profits more often than before. The IRS didn't pay you off I hope,LOL. Happy trades, Mark Brown.

caution flag while today was a very good day, (check out wph) and the productivity and labor cost numbers were very good for the markets, i cant help but feel that whatever bounce we get off cisco's earnings will be short lived and tomorrow morning will be a good time to buy some oex puts for insurance, with the bulk of the earnings out, a bunch of ipo's soaking up liquidity, i feel there is a very good chance this market could sell off hard again, still would rather be a bull, but oex puts are good insurance-- you buying any william? I will be in -in the morning, oex feb 780 puts, if im wrong, that would tickle me to death, i just dont know where the new momentum is going to come from to keep this market going, and all those new ipo's will be hard to absorb, this market just feels a "little tired", look for best entry around 10am in morning edit-- oex plays are only for experienced investors, very easy to loose money on these, I feel about 75% confident in my position here
