Joseph, with all due respect, I think you simply convinced yourself against evidence to the contrary that ADPT was headed much lower (panicked). There were statements made during the conference call that this fiscal second half is expected to improve. You ignored not only the available information but the general sentiment of some well informed investors (SI) suggesting that ADPT was near bottom. You chose to be the lone wolf, selling the bottom. Don't blame the market! Furthermore, A move from $13 5/8 to $11 isn't "squat" in tech stocks. How do you think folks feel that purchased ADPT in the $30's and $40's. A large part of winning in tech is not to freak out when these things sell off.........and be prepared to buy! If you can't handle the volatility I'd suggest sticking to mutual funds or bonds! Larry

Re: "AS soon as hd hit 43 1/2 I will be out of the market for good." I think many people would do much better using low cost, no-load mutual funds to invest in the market. Perhaps you are in that category. As a matter of fact, I may be in that category as well. Why don't you check it out. vanguard.com troweprice.com montgomeryfunds.com Best wishes, I2
