JW,

Re wouldnt it be wiser to
allow such a suckers rally to stall, then short it?


So let me get this straight; you're going to short the market after it has already fallen 10%? Assuming what we went through last week was a "sucker's rally," you'd be shorting today no? With the NAZ 220 points from its high! Good luck if that indeed is your startegy.

Jim, appreciate your thoughts. Very funny stuff.... and well written too. "Dumb but successful thief"..... I like that. Just sold the rest of my AMAT trading shares today. Perhaps we will get another buying opportunity after the earnings announcement. Jeff
