Hi Chip and All, I took a week of "Spring Break" and just got back. Looks like nobody was minding the store while I was gone! Who let the Arkansas Lecher in on the BioTech revolution? What's BioTech Bill know anyway?

Well, the highest price I got for GENE shares that I sold was $63.75. At that point the account was 50% Cash Reserve and my indicated first buy-back was about $24. I really didn't think it would happen so quickly, but the price is nearly there now!

With GENE down to about $25, I may want to let some dust settle before I do any buying. I'll keep you all posted when I do start buying shares back again. It may be a bit early. In the mean time the Cash Reserve is now earning me about 5% - significantly higher than the GENE shares were paying in dividends! :-)

My NERX and BPUR both gave back some of their premium as well. Both are holding up better than what GENE is currently showing.

Best regards, Tom

Chip,

Nope, I didn't sell a one. Oh well, guessed it wrong.
My thinking was that GENE could still go and that if I sold I'd probably never get that large of a position again so I sat.

Good Luck,

Lee
