Interesting developments involving the possible attack of Iraq. Reservists in this area are now being called to active duty, one year of active service. It isn't large scale yet, but it is beginning.

I was talking with a friend who serves in intelligence. He can't be specific with me, of course, but he has mentioned several times that we know what Iraq has, they got most of it from us.

We don't want to find it until we're ready. Notice how we already found something undeclared close to the end of January, a target date that has been important in the attack timetable?

I read in the USA Today that we have assassination squads on the ground and looking for Sadamn, hoping to pressure him into resigning and maybe moving on into Libya. I don't imagine that happening though. I think he'll try to take everything down with him.

I'll be speaking with other reservist friends in the next day or two. I'll try to find out what I can.

Stops on RRI -

I had a bunch at 4.80 or so.

Also had one at $4.68. Low this mornig was $4.68. Price now is $4.81.

Looks like either an order imbalance or market players running the stops to pick up cheap shares, maybe some of both.

One could argue for 'mental stops' but it looks like most of my stop orders executed within 1-2 cents of the stop level. I don't have real time quotes, and my reactions or slow, so I might have lost another 10-20 cents or more even if I had been watching an using mental stops. Since I have more than one account, the switching time would have hurt even more.
