>>Glenn, actually that's pretty good. Ariba was down 90% for you, but you replaced it with brcd which went up 90% since you bought it. So there. Even Steven.<<

sarmad, you've been watching too many presidential debates. that is fuzzy math.

ex. 90% loss on $100 leaves $10. 90% gain on $10 is $9 leaving $19. $19 isn't "even steven" with $100.

90% down is much different than 90% up. just do the numbers ;(

It would be if I had preserved capital and placed the same amount of capital I placed intitially in Ariba in BRCD. However, I placed the remaining capital from Ariba in BRCD.

There is something to be learned here.
