<<My major problem right now is I hate myself.>>

Oh c'mon freeus.....quit being so hard on yourself....the last two years have been hard on EVERYBODY....it's not like it's anything perosnal against you......it's the economy and world problems, not freeus, that has caused the markets self destruction.

May I recommend counseling...anybody that hates themself, should seek professional counseling...there is no need for you to feel this way...you are a very fine person and should have more self respect. may I also recommend that you put your money into bonds or cd's or something and walk away from the market for at least a year and not before you can honestly say the words "I love myself and the market does not dictate how i feel about myself"

wishing you the best

keith

Freeus my point was to not get attached to a stock or a company.

If you think they are all POS then when the times comes to sell you will be able to do so.

There are good companies. They are hard to find early.
Just because a stock doubled or trippled does that mean it is not a POS.

Look at CIEN and JNPR.
Both doubled in less than a month in April.
Were they POS.
Of course they were.

Once they stopped rising if you thought they were POS you would have sold them.

In a bear market 85% are POS.
Why not pick the 85% and short based on TA and resistance rather than pray you find the 15% that are not POS.
