Jacob, I got out of QCOM early this year, after it made me enough to retire, and bought back in on some minor good news, that ended up costing me a bundle when it tanked. I would rather buy in at, say, 80, after Nokia makes a deal, or something else happens of equal significance happens, than be in it at 60 and have it tank to 40. It is all a guessing game, of course, and we all buy on our best guesses. That is mine, right now, and I have been known to change my mind!

from your lips to god's ears, even though I'll have to hate you later on for having had the discipline and luck to wait for such a low point to get in. But don't try to find much generalizable logic behind Lindy's short-term moves; like all great dancers, he goes as much by feel as by rote mechanics. He can and will change on a dime, and will be back in with both feet within the first few points of any significant upward move, I imagine... Besides, these days if it's not on his deck, he's not paying much attention... tekboy/Ares@nimbleisasnimbledoes.com
