Yes, I also play with stocks I own but then when playing only, I like taking some of those risks I would be too chicken to venture on in real life ;)
That may include picks and general timing.

I have a hunch that chances are at least 50/50 that VTSS may be subject to an acquisition before you check next time if 3 months from now. If my theory of a show long coming down between BOD and Tomasetta is correct, then IMO the most recent roots of that has a lot to do with differing opinions back when AMCC badly wanted to acquire VTSS last year.
If rumors are right their 2nd offer was extremely generous and still management refused to go along with that " because we can do much better than that on our own". Maybe they couldn't and maybe the BOD finally got sick and tired of listening to LT.
If so, how would you expect the BOD to act now?
Lots of maybes and hunches here - but a good game.

If no buy out your 1.50 may come true though.

As for your condolences thanks. But I knew back then VTSS was risky and limited my investment to what I can afford to lose. Moneywise I mean, because who likes losing? ;)
