now at 72 1/8 and falling fast real time. Not sure what happenned, but market tried to rally back to even and is now getting weaker as i am writing. lcos will be lucky to stay above 70 at present rate.
Just heard that Clinton is going to speak. Ouch, could it be his resignation or just another apology. Whatever it is, it must not be good looking at how the market is reacting.


virgil, you wouldn't happen to be short LCOS, would you? From looking at your profile, shorting does seem to be a main area of interest for you. I'm just curious what your angle is when you make such bold predictions as you did in your earlier post.

Virgil:

Hows about you sell me some lycos [short]. I will gladly buy it and sell it back to you at 100! What a deal!!

In all seriousness, however, do yourself a favor and buy a put instead of shorting. You will survive alot longer that way if things go against you; the most you can lose on the put is its price, while with shorting you may get your head handed to you.

Good luck,

Jeff
