You'll be able to use your 300 shares of ORCL as toilet paper when this bear market is over. First hit: Actually I made a ton of money from 95-00 long tech. I dumped my 10,000 of shares of Cisco and ORCL at over $35/share. Second hit: I have rotated into gold 14 months ago (as evidenced by my posts). Gold is the top performing sector of the past 52 weeks and I am up 200-300% on my gold stocks. So don't call me a one-hit wonder, I have told you my past and I am telling you the future. 3rd hit: In 10 years I fully expect to sell morons like yourself my gold mining stocks at 100-1,000x more than I bought them. In 2010, I will post on the perils of investing in gold, and some idiot like yourself will talk doom and gloom. And the cycle goes on and on.

>>>Disclaimer: I own 300 shares of ORCL<<<< I wish I only owned that much. Just to think that a few months back I wrote covered call s on the 17 1/2's and then 15's and then on the 12 1/2's and now I have to wait for ORCl to get to 11 so the 12 1/2 will be worth the risk. I may sell some CSCO to buy Oracle, but I will wait for the earnings release to see what the outlook is. Who would have thunk it...the only stock I have left doing well is CPQ....( I bought it at 10)
