Well Gary I believe now is the time to go long. There are some incredible bargains out there and this stock is one of them. I just love it when gifts get handed to me like this! Eric

if you are a trader w/ a short term horizon, yes. If you are a mid/long range trader/investor (months or longer), then no. I like Monty's style, personally. I wish I had made those trades today, but I was slow at the commands console. Time for a new captain's chair for the SS Lawdog. The old one is making my roids act up. I will make it up with a well placed short. Sounds like you are getting into the trading action a little more. Any chance that I will get to witness an OG CSCO short?

I think the appropriate position is be long at the right time and short at the right time. I think Monty has it right. Monty certainly has the right idea, which is to "make money". But since the market has an overwhelming tendency to go up rather than down, if you don't want the heartache and the stomach acid and the nerves of shorting, you might be happier just making money in one direction. Personally, I think it might be fun to try. But then again, I like to sleep. At the moment, Monty is ON FIRE! Good for him.
