Watch the tape tomorrow you might get in around 110. Glenn, go easy on this stock to where you feel comfortable. Don't go in thinking your going to get revenge that would be a mistake. You can always add a little more on the way up.

>I am not going to fight it any longer but going long could >be a big mistake too. > Glenn >PS I may watch from the sidelines for a bit. The only reason I did not short this stock is because I could not get any shares. I thought it was an ideal candidate when it was 50 (split adjusted). Even in my wildest dreams I would have dreamt that it could reach anywhere near 70 let alone 100 or 114!!! Everyday I keep telling myself it will sink the next day, only to see it soar again and again. The probability of sinking the next day increases as the price goes up. I would have been trapped in this stock while keep averaging up. In other words, I would have been wiped out if I got any shorts when I tried. I can understand your pain. I hope you get your money back on some other trade soon. This one is just too unpredictable and irrational to touch. I get dizzy just watching it. James Choi

Glenn, Box it. That way you can come back later when no shares are available. The capital requirements are very low.. Heck I am at less than 5%.. To think, I was bumming when I boxed at 83.. In hindsight, I saved myself 30 points which would have completely wiped me out.. As it stand now, when I unbox, I will have to close some of my shorts just to meet the mainanence margin if it goes any higher.. New round of short covering will definatly drive this higher.. Where the heck is the top?? Should be sometime this month after all earnings and splits done... Tomorrow is not the day to unbox... Stick around Glenn, lets kick this thing together on the way down. In the mean time, got a job for me??
