Selling... but I rather not have to go with the Russian army disposal. . Another problem I see is a lot investors have is dwelling. What I mean by that is being stuck on a stock and not doing research and looking for what will be the next tornado. Oops, well now, wait a minute. One of your posts from the past month on the LHSP thread noted that you had "32 pages of stock trades last year.....that you made 600%.....but you actually had more losers than winners.......that you feel one of your strengths is getting out quick.." www3.techstocks.com So when you say that you would "rather not have to go with the Russian army disposal", I'm a little confused because it looks like you did quite a bit of disposal on many of the stocks you so diligently researched, pre-tornado, and probably pre-chasm crossed. While GG can give you the warm fuzzy feeling, nothing replaces the reward in dollars and intellectual terms in identifying the trend before others do. EXDS.....which you owned as well. I first dipped my toes in (thank you BP) last summer, and have enjoyed the run-up. Posted in GG terms here in December, and have since enjoyed the run-up. Really looking forward to the next earnings report. I think they'll beat analysts' expectations of 35% qtr to qtr revenue growth, and further will beat their own record of > 40% qtr to qtr growth.....50% is my bet. Stan
