Wang: When we posted about GMTC Friday, you could have bought it between 4 7/16 and 5. Today at the open you could have bought at 5 1/8. Currrent price one hour before the close is 5 7/16 on the Ask. I call that a very nice 24 hour gain!! Even worse case, its not bad for owning just a few hours! It was not that I did not want to help you. You wanted to short the stock while I am long. What do you want me to do, help you short it??? Come on!!! Good Luck with NTKI Instock

Help. I see it but can't DO it. Here are my assessments written down Mon. nite after study and after MOT reported minus-three disappointment: MOT up; Lattice ought to go up despite minus-one warning; KLAC ought to rise maybe 3 points; MU could break out; VTSS should go up but could all be in gap; AGPH--something's screwy with that stock. Those are pretty accurate observations. And Cliff's Drilling (this stock goes up and down four points in a day and is lower than low) I thought should go up if everything else did. Did I make a cent? No. I enter too late, don't stick when I should, am reluctant to go against the intermediate term trend which I believe is down, and I eventually bought Cliff's which had already risen, has too little volume, and sold at 1 p.m. when it starteddown. How should I have known to do better? PLEASE comment.
