All I can say is blech! My portfolio being down 15% in one week is rather painful, even if it is all unrealized gains. Still, volatility being what it is we should be able to claw it all back by the end of this week :)

Regarding traditional measures: SUNW is taking a beating along with a bunch of negative-earnings .com'ers. Seem's rather unfair to me, but that's the free market. I just wish all these portfolio managers wouldn't go whining to the press when they can't figure out what's going on.

We may see some more down tomorrow as "window dressing" continues. I had earlier thought money managers might actually want to show SUNW in their portfolios this quarter for a change, but Greenspan and Abbey Joseph Cohen seem to have settled that.

I was so busy entering buy orders for ADI in the big dip this afternoon that I didn't have time to pay much attention to SUNW, or I might have picked up some more at 90 +/-. Contributing to the problem was that Schwab had a bad tick on their SUNW chart all afternoon that made it almost impossible to use, and Velocity wasn't working right part of the day.

It's been a brutal few days. My wife is unhappy. I should be working on my income taxes, but it's hard to ignore the market when it's doing such crazy stuff.

JMHO, of course.
