Amigo Sergio,

I believe you are referring to CMP and yes Linda came out of the wood work to attack after it dove. CMP reported earnings in line with what they had been saying but they used a reserve to do it. I exited during the onslaught. I believe they could become a $2 stock. Back to your friend. Out she pops blaming this guy for passing her inside information that although technically correct was not what was expected. I get the impression she might be suing him. For a while it was like a soap opera. He said, she said, All My Children had nothing on them. I am trying to distance myself from the whole mess and chalk it up as another valuable learning experience.

I have now moved into a more conservative strategy of buying uncovered calls. This limits my loss potential during these often trying times.

Jose

Sergio, what is it with Linda? She ripped the HDIE thread apart over the last weekend slamming a poor guy over there. Regards, Joe
