I share your pain. My loss is tiny in comparison, but if you can short more at this lofty level and in long term. One year looking back this s..ker worth no more than $20. Good lucks. It seems there is no standing place in bookselling on internet. One decade from now America is the most literate country nobody can imagine!

Hi Felicia, Just a few thoughts Re-minimizing our tornado style realized short-term loss. If we have sold puts (or bought shares), such as Intc and Dell, 3 or 4 weeks ago, we may want to consider taking the relative large short-term profit right now...JMHO that Intc, Dell, Csco, Asnd, and... are all setting close to their short-term tops....we can buy those shares right back in a couple of days (or weeks) at the same(most likely less) prices. -- (I remember a post from you discussing Dell purchases when Dell was at low 80s) This would enable us to locked in some tax relief...and afford us some short-term trading opportunities on our long portfolio. (I am only referring to short term gain/loss, Candidates for long-term Cap. gain treatments do not apply here). I hope that you do not mind the above discussions; and please feel free to comment(you or anyone else). My very best wishes.
