Pat - I agree completely, but I can sympathize with the sellers. I too have been under water (deeeeep water) with ASND for a long time. The tendency is - once you're back to even or even up a bit, get out. & consider yourself lucky to avoid a loss. However, I'm sticking, cause I see a lot more upside potential long term & will use mental stop-loss to avoid riding it back down (course we all know that's not going to happen again, don't we). Best regards Bruce Taylor

Pat, have to agree 100% with you. I would bet that most of us who had been down big on ASND, were virtually shaken out on the recent plunge to 30-31 after the first 38 run. I know I was on the trigger a few times to completely bail down there close to 30, and just move on. Was a character building experience to say the least. But now I'm up as are many others I'm sure, and feeling awfully good. A few more points of cushion would be nice though.
