P: Oh, that's right ... MU ... the 'POS,' correct? LOL. I'll go the the CFZ for follow-up news after dinner. I think you're right about the pop on Naz hopefully tomorrow. I'm 'putted up' on QQQs and DJX and feeling very good about that ... holding thru Tuesday. At minimum. Re daytrading. I actually despise it. Am only doing out of 'desperation' <g> ... as opposed to locking up literally everything I own for the next 10 years in CDs. How dismal. <g> Might do that also out of necessity ... but I like trading the downside now as opposed to that alternative right now. If I've learned anything, it's to rule out absolutely NO possibility. Every broker I've used said it right up front .... about the only thing they were right about: "ANYTHING can happen." bia

For what it's worth, I thought Chic's post was right on .... I read this thread and am amazed that some, not necessarily you, have anointed themselves guardian over the masses. "I am here to save you from yourself" is how they position themself!! What a joke ... how is this any different than the person they rant about ?? It's not ... in fact, it is quite the same ... individuals are responsible for all their actions ..... and the self anointed on this thread are no different than the self anointed on any other thread. What credentials do these self anointed bring to the table ?? A chip on their shoulder ?? An axe to grind ?? Negativity about everything from career choices to investment opportunities ?? No, they are not saving the masses; indeed, they are simply feeding their own personal needs grounded in negativity ... so lashing out at others comes easy to them. In truth, it adds no value and is not saving the masses as they would have one believe, they are just feeding their own ego. Life is a series of choices; nobody is forced to do a thing ... and nobody should have the audacity to believe it is their mission to save others from their own choice. Anyway .. that's my story and I'm sticking to it !!! JB
