I'm still short YHOO, but hedged against with XCIT. Still in the black, but just barely now. They'll start coming back together though.

YHOO Moron. We're all hoping that soon you'll be transformed back into that "Genius" we all know and love, the same one that's in each of us. Until then just try and be mortal. Good Luck Chuck.

Charles, I finally saw the light and covered YHOO today at a significant loss, but it would have been worse at the close. I have been watching markets a long time, and I have never seen anything as insane as this. It will end in panic, but who knows when. I just hope it doesn't take the world economy down with it, but it probably will. Just an old man's opinion.

Just to let you know you are not alone out there. I am short YHOO and AOL. Waiting patiently. Have enough food and water left* to see AOL run up to about 145 and YHOO to above 100. This is if ZITL and BFIT do not keep on going up.

In terms of holding I could go further but I had to draw the line at the point at which events would not allow me to go golf full time for an indifinite time period (I don't know how to play golf but I figure I could learn. strike out golf replece with sailing). IMO a lot of what is going on IMO has to do with reckless use of other people's money and trying to chase away the shorts. Dangerous game! The tide may turn!
