Agreed..As always, the market will win in the "timing" game. It's like betting against the house in Vegas...Do you think that NE has been buying-back some of their million shares?

I hate December. Nope. Not buying UFAB. I am up to my ass in stocks and can't fit anymore in the boat. They may be alligators instead of stocks cause they are starting to bite my butt. I fit weren't for the options that expire tmw I would just go do something else and let it ride till Jan. Did have some good pie...Choc. Eclair...along with Mesquite grilled pork chops and a bowl of chili....

Hi L.T.: Well, my $28 order on NE got filled today. When I placed it this a.m. before the market opened, I didn't really expect (or particularly want) it to be filled since that would mean ANOTHER down day. I've been kinda chasing NE for about a week now. Since I got filled, I am going to take a positive approach and declare that I bought the bottom. The purpose of this pronouncement is not to create a self-fulfilling prophesy (i.e., every time I buy a stock it instantly goes down). While that is what usually seems to happen, I'm not giving in to that mentality today. After all, hundreds of posts ago I consulted my crystal ball and called the real turnaround day as 12-29. That's still possible! Trying to remain upbeat...mph
