And speaking of QCOM, has anyone taken a peak and my favorite silly portfolio, the one I called "DlphcOracl's Challenge"? As of today four out of five investments are showing a 40%+ return (that's 3 shorts and 1 long) while the fifth investment shows a 20% loss. This fictional portfolio has, thus far, turned a zero dollar starting investment into $68,000 in under 4 months. Nice.

Hmmm, that's 4 posts in a row from me and it's not even 3am. Guess I had better shut up now.

Stockhawk, it takes very strong conviction for an experienced investor to avoid that temptation. For someone who came into the market for quick bucks, and who listened to "the Buzz" in making his selections, an upside down position is almost impossible to keep. If he's dealing with a live stockbroker, negative encouragement is always present. Too bad.
