Eims, I grabbed a few shares "just in case" . . . but was hoping to see the overshorting that we are now seeing in the single digits. . . THAT is where any sort of short-covering play starts. Same thing with ASYS if it gets knocked back to $14 or lower again tomorrow. . . You know the thing that is different now than other times in the year is that for whatever reason the garbage stocks are popping up left and right. . .I mean we took positions in trashy stocks which, in a "normal" market, we would have never touched. . . just because they are the ones with the percentage gains. I have a portfolio full of what I believe are the best stocks in the market. . .but, aside from a few, they are just sitting there doing nothing. The market as a whole is pretty dull. . . which is why I get attracted to the risky momentum plays. . . when I see garbage popping 50 and 100 percent, and the great stocks just sitting there. . . what am I to do? Sure hope the markets pick a direction already. . . I really don't like all this wash and rinse. Rande Is
