>>The only reason I continue to use a full service broker is because of what he'll let me do...<<

Would this have to with the fact that he is clueless?? :-)

Seriously if you pay 3+% commission you should be able to whatever you want, within reason as long as your account is big enough.

I have been busy today and haven't been able to post much, so I will try to condense what I have to say after reading the days events.

Regarding brokers...what a laugh! You know its pretty sad when you give your broker more good tips than he gives you. However,I continue to use my broker because he does let me do things that most folks using online services don't get to do. Like buy the "w" on margin. :-) Also, the man does things to an Armani suit that are unheard of. <g> And, when it comes to the Big Board stocks, he knows his stuff and has done well by me. I consider him a friend, and think I will keep him around for a while.

Moving on, I noticed we had a slammer on email today. And not a real smart one at that, unless he backs up what he says. So, I email the guy on AOL and ask him what he meant by his attack. What I got back was a "I am new and just learning to DD" blah blah, and then proceded to personally attack other folks on this thread. So, being the nosy person I am, I look the guy up on SI. Seems like he is spending a lot of his time posting at RNTK, so again, (it a nosy thing) I go look at their website. Here is their mission statement:

" It is Rentech's goal to maximize the use of its technology to enhance the quality of the environment while providing the Company's
shareholders an excellent return on their investment."

Sound like anyone we know?? While the general operations (AT THIS TIME) sound different, the general idea sounds the same. We don't know what his company's FUTURE plans are... Is it just me??

I am not saying this guy intentionally is trying to tank the stock. Maybe he is, maybe he isn't. He could actually be someone who is new, and just doesn't know any better. If, however, he is of a malicious nature, which is QUITE possible, (and IMO WAY overdue on this stock), then I feel sorry for him and hope he looks good in orange and likes guys named Bubba.

If you are holding long, and you have the slightest doubt in your mind that this is for real, now is the time to go. You can get out now with a nice profit, and allow the rest of us who ARE sure to get in at a reasonable level. No one will think any less of you if you do.

Just my opinion,

:-)
