Bernie Schaffer on CNBC, comments: gradual decline over last several weeks in market volatility this usually precedes a gradual RISE in the major averages the Put/Call ratio is neutral right now for tech stocks, slight imbalance favoring Puts for QQQ this usually is slightly bullish for tech stocks not too deep, but somewhat optimistic end of Schaffer comments ------------------------ my pithy comments: poor response to ORCL news Anadigic warning put damper on wireless components QCOM continues to move in contrary fashion (up today) Intel continues to weigh on chip stocks INTC continues under 59 what a ride down from 74 ? / Jim

JDub, Sorry for the delayed reply. You wrote: who cares that my memorable June post was on the mark ??? It just show's that you know what you are talking about. You were no longer emotionally attached to your stock. total ignorance on the "nausea effect" as I call it where any exposure to a certain stock can repeat minor trauma Perhaps you are lucky because you feel this now. Was this the one ingredient you were missing all this time. Seems to me that you are more of a complete investor than anyone here. Is the pain that you feel on a daily basis enough to keep you from repeating your outlook of euphoria? Many of us still don't have this. Perhaps it is what is required to be truly successful in this game. Klapp, the answer to your question is emotional, not rational your response is rational mine was emotional the pain is emotional the pain is there every single day, almost every single hour and has been for 150 consecutive days !!! I think you have learned a lot from this pain. I see it in your posts. I see it in your trades. I've read almost a million posts. Countless books. Perhaps it's pain that we really learn from. Reread your TA posts. I've learned a lot from them. Many of us have. If your emotions are kept at bey, there will be no limit to your success in this area. ...your tennis game, however, may need more work... -YourPupil
