Jan, Have you been following trade size; a lot of small trades--I would assume going to the retail buyers. If these retail buyers are as ignorant about keeping cash reserves as they are in choosing stocks, we could see a whole slew of margin calls when this thing hits mid 80's. There was also a lot of retail(I know this is an assumption, but what else in such an absurd scenario...) at $100 going up the first time, which could lead to another round of margin calls at the mid 70's. When this thing hits the mid eighties we could see a two-day avalanche that would land it in the 40's or 50's... Your thoughts? Anyone else? LEE1
