heres some other picks i like here lxk- low risk play from here, should jump over $70 by next wed imo myg- takeovers rumors swirling on this top name consumer product, rumor is electrolux is going to buy it, i dont like to buy takeover speculation, but this is pretty low risk entry with a possible big kicker, i give it a 60% chance it does get bought out over the next 30-60 days, if electrolux is willing to pay their price, should be big premium from where it is trading eweb- foreign internet play for speculative drawer stock, looking for double digits by fall qcom and svnx looks like they want to run here also, expect to see nasdaq positive by end of day (if greenspan stays healthy)

Hope I'm not barging in here, but I am a long-term holder of Softbank. There is an excellent thread here on SI with many knowledgeable people. The split is hard to understand. The stock has been trading at the post-split price since shortly after the announcement. The way I understand it the new shares aren't credited to shareholders accounts until June 23. Therein arises the margin problem, as most peoples accounts are showing the post split price of 180 but not the new amount of shares until 6/23. This is explained much better at the Softbank site, if you scroll back to around the date the split was announced. Hope this helps and didn't just confuse you completely.:) Regards, Debra
