Jurgis, re RIG, NE, drillers - interesting that you are so gloomy after the stocks have a 30% haircut. Did you in fact believe immediately after that disaster that nothing would happen and it would be business as normal after 2 weeks?

Not trying to scold anyone but selling and asking questions later is often not a bad strategy if something unexpected happens. As a small term investors, we have the benefit that we can sell our positions on a moments notice - I imagine the institutions need weeks to dump their positions if they own many million shares.
