Greetings John & UF,

Just so you know, I always try and flip the QCOM cc's in very short order for the same reasons you mentioned. Most of the time that works, but I do have scars from a few burns.

To the thread. As a lurker, it's not often I can address two of my investing heroes in one post. Years ago, John took a day off and sat in on the ERCY trial. He drove like 4 hours each way and reported to the SI thread that night. That event started the run of QCOM we dream of aka 1999/2000. UF and I met in San Diego, as well as John, and UF scolded me big time about being too heavy on margin. Turns out I listened to him just before the big crash of 2000 or I wouldn't even have stock left.

Thanks again to both of you for all your contributions and help.

Tony

The top recently was, I think, 54 on the MediaFlo news and rumors of possible settlement with NOK.

Oh how I wish it had been, John. The closing top was about $43. I didn't look at intra-day tops.
