GST, I hope they are wrong too. In the account in which I place tech and some energy, I did not believe it was possible to get a margin call with the amount of margin I had way back. Now I am wondering. I had first calculated that could occur if the Nasdaq fell to 1800 plus or minus a little. I did not believe that would happen and at least it is showing my calculations were correct and that was a 1000+ points ago. I will deal with it when the time come but at that point, I am not if adding money to cover it makes sense or just sell some stock. The problem is the stock hardly raises any cash at that point which points to the reason for the margin call in the first place. By the way, would hardly have mattered if there was Ariba or I2 in there for whatever it is worth<VVBG>
