Hey.. go easy on Frank... The beauty of markets these days is they don't take to long to go where they are going... The tech revolution is not dead at all.. what the last 6 months confirms is the players at the table set the rules as they please.. Every now and then those new to the table get an "indoctrination" to the darker side. The class of 2000 the most exciting yet. The only fear I have is the markets spilling over and affecting the economy.. Rashid

Mark, They say misery loves company, so I'm just letting you know that you are not alone in PCTL. I was trading in and out of it and, although I knew better than to hold it, I got sloppy with it and got caught holding overnight the day the earnings warning was announced. Down almost 3 points right now. Jay

Hi Mark! I finally decided to take the dip into AZTC on Thursday when it flushed below 5. Dave and I both bought a few...mine at 4 3/16. After a bit I could see that was a mistake and when some nice person put up a nice size bid at 4 I hit them and said goodbye. David said that AZTC reminded him of the broker commercials..."Look! AZTC has shares coming out the wazoo!" HAHA! It was funnier when Dave said it. I was talking with my Dad tonight and told him that the best decision I made was to go to cash when this all started. I told him that every time I tried to dabble at buying something I was getting slapped silly. It reminded me of the game I used to play as a kid...where you take you hand and hold it upside down over another persons hand, then try to flip your hand over and slap the other persons hand before they pulled it back. Whap! Whap! Ouch! Those market makers just kept slapping me. I gave them back a few thousand this week but nothing to big. The last six months have been so great that I needed a reminder of what can happen if you let your guard down. I've never traded through a bear like this so it has been a real eye opening experience. I'm all in cash except for a penny stock holding and will be ready to see what happens next week. Maybe we can catch a few bounces now. Cheers!
