--30,000-- Cool! Yeah, I'm on the road and headed South, so run for the hills. . . there hasn't been a more accurate indicator of the markets come along than the direction my car drives during market hours. Go figure. Broker said, "Get off that road!" So I pulled into a Howard Johnson Express. . .very nice. . . I'm in their Business Services office for guests. . .you should see it!! I have all the screens running quotes, charts, etc. . .looks like a trading room. They are all looking in wondering why on earth I could possibly need so many screens on at once! Well, we knew the market would sell off after earnings. . .and as it often does, it sells off BEFORE earnings season is up. . . usually it sells off UNDERNEATH a very narrow rally. . .in other words a narrow group yet to report keeps going up, while the much broader market sells off. . .the index shows barely a move, so most folks hold. . .and end up becoming bag holders. . .as they wonder why their ports are down so much, while the Dow and the Naz are barely changed. So I've already sold many of the Earnings plays. . .and am only keeping a few that have yet to report. . .hoping to buy them even lower. . . AMD, RFMD, EXDS, etc. You know the ones. Meanwhile, ISLD hurt. But CBBC felt great. . . .just like old times. . . though I bailed at open. Gotta run, Rande Is

Julie.... Remember my wife's "hormonal surge" and the resultant purchases of KG and JMED last week? Well, I've been stuck with them ever since (trading in and out for small change on some traders, but stuck with a higher core). Well, some big blocks are passing through this morning, so I think I can sleep now. One million + and following 50k etc. Actually, KG and JMED are good buys here....KG below 30 (which of course I did buy some more) and JMED below 33 (that's the guaranteed min. sale price to KG I believe). If it doesn't work for you, just blame my wife. Seriously, she thinks it is kinda her fault right now, but I keep telling her that I pushed the buy button.
