Greg I really appreciate you taking the time to respond to me personally. I do not trust this market one iota and one thing I have learned is to NOT keep throwing money at a stock I like because it drops a bit and looks like a better buy. I need to be more like you and Zeev - bailing after a fixed preset loss. As you know I was "despondant" in my own words in May over horrible timing decisions, not taking profit and panicking at the bottom. Then desponadant a second time when things shot up when I wanted a bigger drop. Although I a sorry to have missed this last runup. I am not losing any sleep over it. In fact, in some ways it is refreshing to be in cash and just watch the action. I am still way up on the year, all because of RMBS. Should have let you manage my funds after the first runup. Not only wouyld I have gotten out at the top I would have shorted on the way down. I believe I would be up 600% or better if I knew what I know now, back in March (or you were managing my funds). Right now I am tring to feel good about being up better than 120% since the beginning of the year, and trying to get a better feel for stocks I really like (CMRC RMBS ELON PWER SSTI SNDK GMST and others). Right now I know RMBS well, that is a start. Getting a feel for CMRC as well. 5 days in a row it bounced off 40-41, since I did not know whether it would resolve up or down I did nothing. Any value plays out there? Do you have stocks you like with pre-determined prices you will pay?
