Sorry to hear that. And thanks for sharing LR. I traded it a couple times but was very happy to be sitting on a pile of shares. Nice time to get some extra cash too. I rolled it into additional shares of INCY and AAPL. Still hoping GTSI drops a bit more to get back in it.

Well Jim, I traded it too - sold about 1/3 when it went up to 1 1/4, bought more at 1, bought more at 5/8. I probably would have sold much of my position if it had spiked up a bit. In fact I had an order in to sell a large portion at 1.25. Luckily I got up early and saw the news and had a chance to close the order before the market opened. I'd like to thank you for your excellent analysis that originally gave me a reason to look at the stock. I'm sorry you didn't get to profit more from it. I can't begin to tell you how may times I've lost patience with "value" positions and sold out before reaping any gains. I have a hard time with being patient -- although sometimes I hold my losers much, much too long. The old psychology bit. I hold onto losers hoping for them to rise enough to break even but sell out of positions when they "aren't doing anything". Stupid thing to do but there it is. kathleen
