I always get a bit cautious when a stk has went below 5 bucks...I know it's not like our good old dell day where price doesn't matter... 3 bucks sounds cheap enuf..I followed you on stor and did well..sold way back....ocpi was a wash to little loss.

Re stocks: I had both Ocpi and Stor a short time back. but sold because they did not do as expected. IMO Stor is not worth messing with for two reasons- the negative earnings and these proposed sales which will prevent good upside for LT. . biz.yahoo.com Most people here have different goals than myself so I am usually reluctant to comment but will do so because IMO there are many stocks with positive earnings and not such outrageous insider action. I tried to hold Plcm at much higher price while knowing there were huge proposed sells by insider and it was costly to try that. This market being rather flat, now reminds me trying to beat the market of the 1970's when winning was tough. It could be done but was difficult- had to try 5 stocks to find one that could move up.. One had to be selective they said, but thats a useless word A year ago they had the Gorilla stocks - and I haven't heard much about those lately. Am perfectly happy to own some out-of- the-mainstream stocks because I do not intend to sit here for the next two years reading about the 19 th downgrade of all the chips or all the 'puters by some ^%$&*@ analyst, Intc, Amd, Cpq, Dell, Nt,Glw. Some general concepts are holding: 1. When Mr G talks, the market goes down 2. When a tech stock reports, the stock goes down (Symc, Manu, and even today Rimm) Should have bgt puts on those pigs. . Now that Mcld looks interesting...... Regards Sig But I still may try Plcm just one more time (some of us never learn)<g> Slowly, carefully, stops all the way Whats to lose?
