You and Zeev are sounding very reasonable to me. I'm doing more research over this weekend and make decision then. Thanks. Don't thank us yet. We both could be wrong. ng But seriously. Think about where we are. Look at it this way. If you do nothing and we tank, you can go long. If you do nothing and we rise, you can short higher. As long as you are a trader it should not make much difference except at major tops or bottoms. We are not at either. Preservation of capital is paramount when one "is guessing" and it should be clear that we all are (except HAL). So even if you exit and we tank, you will not have really lost much. If you guess wrong and stay entrenched, we may never hear from you again like WP. You had a nice run, relax a bit or at least short much smaller positions and on fewer stocks. Maybe try BZH or FNM or something that does not move as fast as EMLX. I am pissed I missed a great entry in BZH yesterday. There is life AND DEATH outside of tech. Research that. Come back with an idea outside tech. Zeev how does that BZH chart look to you? M

WOW, Lots of OVERLY BULLISH sentiment going into January? Last night the sky was falling, today its 2050, then 2250...I admit I have been very wrong about current strength of markets...but we can only go so long before the GAS runs out! Technicals on both NASD and DOW look like they are ripe to turn over. The fact evrtyone and thier mother are chasing the markets..we just might roll over in early January as investors wait to sell in 2002 instead of 2001..and head south as earnings come in. I have no clue really how to play these markets, except to play CRUDE. Long for a week, then short for 2. Personally I found the JNPR action INCREDIBLE! I read those earnings and I cannot believe not 1 analyst lowered their price targets? This tells me FUNDS ARE KNEE DEEP IN TECH, and BIO-TECH. I wonder how fast the air will come out..and if we do goto 2200-2300 like so many believe...we could fall to 1600 much too qiuckly! Enjoy the posts, and wish everyone a safe and happy Holiday season! I just wish markets would make CENTS again!
