INFI drops a buck a share within hours of my restarting a
position. Incredible, I truly have a knack for poor timing,
already a couple grand in the hole! And an extra slap in
the face comes as Kosan spikes up just as infi falls.

Basically, the market is a monster that devours wealth.
You may do well for awhile, but then you have to regress
to the mean--the monster can smell you and hunt you down,
and it is after me right now. I just cannot post any
ideas anymore, if I post a trade, it will always go bad
--and within days if not hours. Same thing happened last
summer, all in a row, everything I bought got slammed.

I apologize to anybody who ever bothered to tune
in to this thread. It is confirmed, I am poison.
I have no timely ideas, no knack for it. The stuff
I own is just old vomit I lap up because it is the
vomit I am familiar with.

Just walk away...breath.
I'll hit the slopes tomorrow.
All is well up there.
Breathe.
