Jeff:

A lot more selling in LU over the next few weeks. You may want to think about dumping on a DCB and buy back once you hear the cc.

Hopefully the market bounces for a couple of weeks.

Hi Jeff,

I have been thinking of you during this recent LU carnage and hoping you were ok. I know I got skinned a little but probably miniscule by comparison.

Anyway, the posts cautioning against 'preservation of capital' are starting to make me rethink again. Most of the people here at SI are traders and can react to market forces on a somewhat timely basis. Those of 'us' in the work force who do alot of research - as an investment into our future - must be wondering what decision to make as we see the slow drainage of the bottom line. I know I have gone in and out three times. That in itself is quite time consuming. Seeing the result is less than thrilling.

The basic fear is that the one or two days that investors must be invested to have good gains is going to pass us by, and with it the best opportunity to catch up to March's incredible highs, which I must have written off to my own excellent research rather than an out of control upward spiral.....ggggggggg!!!!!!!!!!!!

If I can only never forget the lessons of the year 2000. The first of which is, I was not y2k compliant <VBG>.

I think I originally had a question but it all comes down to personal choices and again I have made mine.....call it 75% in and willing to go either way again.

My best to you.

John Hagelman
