OT Glad to see another great day for biotech, GZMO was way up, oh! But I don't have any extra shares for trading, I just have the "don't_you_ever sell_that_last_batch_rememeber_Ariad?!" block. All my trading money is tied up in Gliatech. Maybe glia will not work out, but it sure looks like a no brainer. I don't really trade CNSI and KDUS, the former has just too much possibility for upside, and what I have in the latter is paid for several times over and I'm willing to wait a few years, see what comes of this living chip. (and I know, I know, everbody else owns it for other reasons, but I don't care if I'm right for the wrong reason). I did sell something like 2% of my cnsi today, I know it is silly superstition, but I have found if I throw a little sacrifice back, the stock runs up nicely. And I needed just a little more cash for my first 1/4th of Boeing. Did the same with SNAP, miscalcuated and needed a little more cash for some more Burlington Northern, so threw away an odd lot--immediately up. It is good Karma I guess, ha ha. I am not rushing into old economy value however, my WM seems to have turned the corner, but I am not saying we have seen the lows in BA, BNI etc. We may not see the lows in old economy til tax loss season. Likewise big pharma, I've put money into SGP and AVE recently--but hasn't done anything for me yet. Biotech will very likely remain the hot sector, just like the inets did last year, much longer than anybody imagined. I'm probably still 2/3rds biotech.
