Tony,

Yes, something is going on: there was more selling pressure than buying pressure on LGNDW. What that ultimately means I do not know. But I do know that I intend to hold on to a position in LGND - one way or another - for at least a few more years. Given that, it just seemed a good time to swap some LGND for LGNDW. Since I did hold on margin, this does free up some funds and that means lower interest payments on my margin account. Overall, I am quite content with the results of the day and if I see the same or better scenario possible tomorrow, I will simply continue.

I am quite sick of trying to predict where this stock will go for the short haul. This way, it is a lot easier to wait it out.

Cheers, Torben

tonyt, Yesterday you posted on the fact that LGNDW was down a point while the stock was up. Today LGNDW is up a point & the stock is unchanged. What are your comments on this abrupt reversal? Bernie.
