Glenn, I thought your shorts were in a box position. Sorry for all of our losses. But It is ok that we spent first and make money later. Well, I have the same intention as yours to turn a profit. It is just much more difficult than what we all thought. well, when we win, we celebrate together here, big. Am I being too optimistic? Feliecia, I boxed for a few hours last Friday. I did not like being boxed so unboxed. There are pros and cons to being boxed. In this case the pros would have out weighed the cons thus far. Anyhow. **OT, Glenn, you are in the jewelry business. Would you like to buy some jewelry such as diamond from Indonesian people whose currency devalued 400%? I heard from my friends that there were so many very good bargain because US$ is so strong. However, you have to fly to Singapore to buy them. I may pick some when I go back to Indonesia to visit my folks next time. My risk tolerance is getting bigger after seing what happened in Indonesia and loosing money in AMZN, but still in control--always remember, capital preservation is the priority. There is no need to go to Indonesia to purchase devalued currency diamonds. They are exported. Thank you for the suggestion, however. Glenn
