N,

thanks for posting the comparison. I have not followed the RUT but some of the sector indices.
Would be interesting if the sector indices are outsmarted as well.

At the time I see how badly the early buying worked out. Consider that I averaged the MAXM position 3 times in order to get a price of 6 even with a bigger part of the position bought under 5. ...I wish I've had the patience I had in buying the DSLN shares.

One thing is interesting. Stocks which have not declined close to the end of December do not trade up:

example: XLA (it lost a bit in the end of dec), VCLK (flat), and CLRS (took the beating earlier and not towards end of december).
But it pays off to buy several stocks. The FFIV beating didn't hurt too much.

N, looks like my internet-laden tax loss selling portf. is going under. Yahoo reported bad and is itself off $7, taking a lot of internet related stocks underwater.
