Skimming through recent posts, I see that I
tend to mention buys and not very often sells.

fwiw, I don't right now own any eln, mlnm,
gern, lsbc, or orch. I do have some vgnx,
the tgen and rigl, the sampler of cege,
a splash of snap. We have already done some
googling around regarding genxy today.
The only other thing I can think of us
vlts...which of course is on a tear recently
after I dropped it. Typical.

Those other things I listed have popped in and
out of my account from time to time in the past
couple months. The trades have not done much
for me. I don't want to create the impression
that I've dipped into my cash to do any
really significant buying.

I always seem to stay around 75% cash--
plus or minus ten percent these days.
My CD is coming due. I hate to say it,
but it is likely I'll just roll it over.

I see increasing interest in things like
gold. I have no use for that junk.
