Go Rocky! You the man.

Don't mind if stick to my own trading patterns though do you? I wanted to post to point out that the reason I'm "in" IOM right now is because we are at the BEGINNING of a WIDE and BROAD rally in techs.
I looked at tons of techs that broke just like IOM in the last few months and MANY are starting to bounce. WHY? Read TheStreet.com for great thoughts on the bull CASE in tech. For one, tech is IT when it comes to making $ in 90's. It's also FEB and New Years money WANTS IN!
Asia bouncing is all symbiotic to this sudden and new situation in tech. CYMI is another great young tech company that had fallen greatly
but just bounced 25% in 3 days because THE SAME PEOPLE WHO SOLD, ARE GETTING BACK IN. Why? WHERE ELSE ARE THEY WILLING TO BET THEIR MONEY?
The didn't sell because they we're dumb. The didn't sell because they think CYMI or IOM stinks. THEY SOLD BECAUSE THEY WERE SCARED! Now they are buying because they no they have to wait for returns and the world didn't fall apart in the last few months. THE CHART ALREADY SHOWS THIS! The momentum players are coming back in. This stock can only go one way.

Good luck.

Congrats cRocky, you have been published on WSU. Wow, eat your heart out Gary. :-)

Unfortunately, they qouted you to show your lack of intellegence or your speculative attitude towards investing, loyaly blind to IOM. So in a way, guess you could say they were using you as a perfect illustration of what a dumb ass you are as well as your fellow online investors.

>>"I believe [the stock] will be back at $12-13 by December. Good for a possible 50% profit inside a year."

That's me! Who says I have no influence on the Street?<<

This makes me wonder just how many people read these posts. I would have guessed maybe up to 100-200 people read a typical post here, but I really have no idea at all. These posts don't really have much influence at all, do they?

Speaking of SI types being quoted in national publications, the Smart Money Magazine article about online investors is apparently out now. They asked to interview and photograph me for the article but after thinking about it awhile, I declined. However, I did direct the reporter to Greg Brock, who is in and out of IOM and posts on this thread, and he was interviewed and quoted in the article. So, the next time ya'll are in the grocery store, take a look at it.

Hey! I've been published in the Wall Street Journal!

"the stock"

That's me! Who says I have no influence on the Street?

I say words like "the" and "stock" all the time!

;->

p.s. Sorry, Rocky. I couldn't resist.
