jbn3,

Thanks for your honesty! The last time I had margin troubles was in the 87 crash for I had a lot of naked puts sold at that time! Learned a very good lesson not to use more margin then I have money in an account to back any options or any short squeezes! I only use about 20% to 25% of my total portfolio for trading purposes, and will let it run to 50% before I get concerned about my margined position! At this point in time I'm alittle over 30% since ALO and DELL have gone back to new highs or close to them! Remember I have a portfolio of core holdings that are very seldom sold! Again congrated to all you longs in DELL

Hank

Hello Number 3,

Was I not right about my timing for mid-January? Sorry about your APM stock, but you can't say I didn't warn ya. Hope you'll do well this year. Keep in mind that Feb, Mar, and Apr aren't the best months for computer stocks. Buy again in mid-April. Happy motoring!

(I'm not back here permanently. I don't have the time. But I thought it would be nice to add my .00000000002 billion dollars worth of advice, now and then.)
