Jill... Regardless of what the shorts will say, I think you made a good move and I am sure many will agree with me. Good investing to you.

Hi Jill; Re: "I went entirely rmbs long in my IRA last week".

I might as well make this an opportunity to mention that risk reduction for traders involves avoiding behavior exactly like this. Particularly with a stock as volatile (and high priced) as RMBS. This could explode in your favor, but it could also go the other way.

Best of luck,

Re: Plus I went entirely rmbs long in my IRA last week

Jill,

It's always better to have some diversification in your portfolio. No stock is entirely without risk, and if Rambus doesn't get a tier one memory manufacturer to agree to an SDRAM license deal pretty soon it will begin to slide. Once it starts to slide it won't stop unless it gets that deal - it will just keep going down and be hard to dump as it drops. If you're convinced that Infineon, Micron, or Samsung is about to cave, load on up. But don't put your whole IRA in it.
