Thanks Peg.. I have some others but I put them on the MG watch lists. This has been a learning experience for me and although my trades have gone rather well, like all of you out there, my long term portfolio was hit. Luckily it was in my 'don't touch till 2002' portfolio. Everyone I know has lost a nice amount. No one I know is making the 30-60% a year any longer on their mutuals. I personally do not believe in mutuals but in individual stocks. It's the trading portfolio that saved the day for me and for many others that I know. I noticed some other threads on SI that I frequent had some tempers flare up and I repeat: I'm really proud of everyone who posts to the Market Gems thread for the professionalism and lack of rancor or verbal abuse. Keep up the good work! By the way, this is not MY (Jenna's) THREAD nor is this thread where I vie for any kind of 'guru' status. Some e-mail I'm getting calling me guru of market gems and I don't want that. There are no gurus with crystal balls. There are hard working traders who research perhaps a bit more and might have and edge over momentum players at times, but no one is a guru. We are all created equal here and we all participate and hopefully gain through pooling of analyses, observations and picks. There are no more Jenna's Picks or Jenna's anything.. It is Market Gems the thread. I just host and moderate and throw in my observations and ideas. I can't count the times I've selected from Jeff's picks or Thomas's or Tim's or RookieDave's or Judy's etc.. Or the times I've gotten e-mail telling me to hold my puts and I did and they were right (Pierre).. On the other hand if anyone would chose to put me on a marquee, if it's starring together with Willem Dafoe in a movie, I'll take it!!
