A flat trade or a small loss is always a good trade with USPIX, a profit is a bonus. It seemed that there was a lot of worry about this reporting period for CSCO. That might be the reason for the lack of enthusiasm in buying tech today. It does not matter how they come up with their earnings numbers. The only thing that matters is if people perceive their earnings to be good. If I have a choice to either be right or to make money, I`d rather make money.

Hi NT, I've been trading a few shares around the UOPIX fund instead of messing with the bear fund. Basically sell into the rallies and buy into the valleys. aim-users.com By selling small amounts in the rises, I'm effectively "shorting" my position. Then accumulate shares when everyone's in the "I Hate Investing" mood. Not to change the subject here on the thread from Cisco, but here's my take on Market Direction: aim-users.com Basically, my model shows the market about dead center of the average risk range. This doesn't mean NO RISK, but risk is mild at worst. The measured market risk has dropped way down since its March high water mark. We haven't seen a low risk period since late in 1998. Best regards, Tom
