Even if it did something, its sickening to watch. Dell is back to its own steady ways so have added to that - still one of the few trustworthy LTBH The $7 trill set aside is now coming back, especially with the CD's down to near 1/2 percent payoff and bonds paying little. Therefore I invest fearlessly ( well, almost,-quiver-quiver) in stocks other than Dow stocks because people know they cannot win back losses on small dividends of 3% So money comes to the growth stocks and potential winners regardless of P/E's Asia is hot , China added wireless customers nearly equal to the US population, Asian internet companies show greater than 100% sales growth Thats China, Sohu, Sina, Nte , IIjI etc and I think they are good for more uppage. As you know, sometimes a person is in sync ,and sometimes not. I have been hotter than a firecracker for weeks, can do no wrong, even a mistake can turn out to be profitable. Today I bgt China, Nfi, Sohu, Sina Givn, and Over. Only OVER is down but bouncing. Sold Plub, AAII, Sfi, some IGT, and IIJI (and you see I could have kept the IIJI, but put the money in Sohu so the mistake turns out OK) Nte is down which is bit discouraging , but was up around 3 yesterday, and I dont blame the profit takers. Had already taken some myself. 700% on a call. If you like to be busy, there is no better way than to trade stocks. I start work at 7 am, and not done yet today, Am taking a risk today on Yhoo, ( peanuts actually, some calls at 25 cents). At one time you could count on techs drooping on earnings reports no matter how good. That seems to have changed and will cost me <$200 to find out. My argument is the stock has moved up a lot, people are taking profits, unwilling to risk an earnings miss, without knowing what earnings will be. It is the most common mistake when market is moving up, to sell too early $ig
