Yes, absolutely did. And you'll love this part:

I came back from lunch and had up a chart of the NASADQ composite and a couple others. I saw all of them go straight up at once and figured out something was up(though not what it was at the time) so I went in and covered my three remaining short positions. I got really lucky to say the least.

I don't know how much this will help though, but I guess that's not what we are debating. Have a good evening.

I invest in a stock because I believe in the company, in its product, its management, its profitability, its growth, its history and its future, yet I was penalized by Greenspan's attacks on the markets. On the other hand, those whom he targeted were those who benefited, the speculators and the gamblers. These same hypocrites then turn to us with their pompous attitude and tell us that we should blame ourselves for "investing" in bluechips.

The only solace I have is that in the long run they will have a minor role in the movie Deliverance II....oink, oink, oink.

Cheers,

Vince
