There is a very optimistic attitude about the direction of DELL on this thread.Hopefully you all will be correct with your predictions.However I think that the Asian markets control the mind set on the direction of any stock at the moment.Now with all the turmoil in DC how do you think the asians will react come Sun. night.My opinion is that it is just another negative for the markets.DELL, Iam sure will surprise to the upside in Feb. but between now and then DELL will follow the market. All the major pc makers have announced so there is nothing left except the general direction of the markets.Iam holding on to all of my long shares but I decided on Fri. to unload all the shares I had on margin.I was at the breakeven point so decided to get off roller coaster for awhile.If by chance DELL slips back into the high 80's which i feel will happen before earnings, I would be a buyer on margin once again.But if history repeats it's self and with the luck i have DELL should continue to move higher making what I just wrote alot of bulls--t.
