Mesaba; Everyone has their own strategies to investing. In my case, I look at a stock and do my DD before investing. I judge management and company potential at the time. After my decision is made I let the company do it's business. I re-evaluate my position as the company business plan progresses or on a periodically basis. I don't play a stock to buy and sell as it hopefully moves up. Day trading is a separate game played only on the short term. If I judge that the management is sound and I believe in their judgment I am not going to complain everytime they do something I don't understand or disagree with. I know they know the whole story where I may not. Again everyone has their own way of investing. You may consider it foolish, but my track against the index and money managers has shown to be better (and not just during the bull market). However, it took me years to learn how to not lose my money. Good Luck Rich

It appears we have hit a "no news, low volume" period with JMAR. Unfortunately that means the stock tends to drift lower. In my worst nightmares I usually think like Gooch because of the Surgilase and now CAL ASIC mistakes. Now I will cringe every time JMAR announces an aquisition. I don't know how many more 2-cent EPS quarters we can tolerate with JMAR before all of us bail out. I'm willing to accept 2 or 3 more of them. Then I think about MR and the Mirage and realize that it is truly a gold mine. XRL is still speculative and may not work. The Light Knife may be just a "me too" product. But Micro-machining and the disk-head inspection systems appear to be no-brainer, flat-out winners. So I look at Light Knife and XRL as "icing on the cake" if they turn out good too. Mike
