In hindsight, selling at $9 may seem like great timing; however, my average share price was $6.50, so it wasn't that great. I just decided to sell right after the initial news about DEC/Alpha became public knowledge; I simply kept close track of the price during the days following the news, and I sold at market when I noticed a drop in volume and price around $9.50. It could have certainly climbed above $10 the next day, but I was determined to get out and move on. If I had any guts (and a little more cash available in my IRA account), now would be a decent time to buy just a little . . . you never know when another shot of hope will appear and shoot the price up to $9 again.... Regards, Trenton.
