rewhat happened in the last hour? I sold that's what happened. I decided to pick today (after all it was an up day) to get out of margin (I was never in any danger and did not have to but...) I sold 1000 ctxs, 1000 qcom, 100 cree, 500 ifmx and 200 jdsu. I am out of debt now but I lost $19,710 plus the very small commissions getting out, when compared to closing prices. Ouch. So much for selling gorillas and kings. Freeus Of course I still have lots left but I'm about ready to dig a hole and crawl in, I can't win for losing. However, I have a small personal win: although writing checks for over $7000 to the government thieves, I have not eaten chocolate or other candy today. I'm very proud of myself for that anyhow!
