Yes my dear,

you will see today why I put your mother in RMBS options.

Buy fur coats in the summer.

Selah,

What's the ticker for Rolaids?

CREE is falling again.
Another 10% or so.

I sure make a lousy LTB&H Investor...
I know I should keep looking long term, but weeks like this sure do get under my skin.
I watched CREE form a nice head and shoulders bearish formation.
Instead of capitalizing on the predicted fall, I actually talked myself into buying more, because I believe in them so much.

I'm beginning to wonder if it's impossible for me to be a trader and a LTB&H investor.

When trading without emotions, I'm out quickly or even ride the downside.
For some reason, I find it so difficult to watch my "Buy and Holds" sink so far.

I'm sitting on 1/2 cash, but it still hurts to watch some of these fall so far.

I guess it builds character...

My wife already calls me a character. I thought I built up enough already...
I guess not.

Can we hear from any LTB&H people? I am planning to just wait through this. It seems like this stuff happens every year at this time. Then by Christmas we are ok again.

Anyone else going to hold on thru this? Didn't Voltaire say we will be fine by Jan 01? Any other sellers out there?
