It was a most stressful day-trading day...Its a hard ass job..I mean damn i lost a few thou today on Xcit but over all..I am up ok for the last couple of days... My regular job is much easier<gg>..The mm's on Xcit are down right crooks on filling partial orders..They make the Dell mm's look like saints..I think I will only trade Dell from now on..I made a couple of trades the last hr or so before the close and both were winners.I am worn out..Thank God I had my regular AA meeting tonight<gg>.It got me out of the intense shock I was in..thats for real..

PC Demand Drives IInd half. Yeah, I looked at my long list of stocks today and it was all red ink except Intel. I can't understand why the news actors don't report the fact that PC sales are up.

Hi Mohan: I see LT has been around having fun poking sticks up the nose of sleeping Dell bulls. Very hazardous, the eyelids slowwwwly open and he is face to face to some very long sharp horns. If he wants some gold, I have several coins left, bought them 26 years ago at $620/oz. Whats the offer today???? Did you catch Peter Lynch tonite on TV's NBR ??, very interesting that we( at least myself) are being distracted by external events and politics from concentration on the job at hand.. to stay invested in Dell until the company's awesome fundamentals change. Might as well get all the bear s^%% of of the way at once, bring in the bad news from the Philipines, Australia, Sri Lanka (where is that, anyway). And the British have'nt complained lately, I am sure they can find something to add to the world problems. When Kembles history books are bound in leather( he can afford that), the only ones left out are those that sold their Dell. Picked up my new gourd from Arlington tonight, its shaped like a distorted cucumber, is yellow and green with a black stripes, red decorations and something inside that rattles. Should beat TA all hollow. Hope you have a place inside, weather is scheduled for 105 tomorrow. Regards Sig

THREAD: A Short History Of The Bear.... YEAR / LOSS: 1901 -46% 1906 -48% 1909 -27% 1912 -24% 1916 -40% 1919 -46% 1923 -18% 1929 -47% 1930 -86% 1932 -37% 1938 -23% 1939 -40% 1946 -23% 1948 -16% 1956 -19% 1960 -17% 1961 -27% 1966 -25% 1968 -35% 1971 -16% 1973 -16% 1976 -26% 1978 -16% 1981 -24% 1983 -15% 1987 -36% 1990 -21% Mean decline is 31% lasting 418 days. Median drop is 26% lasting 374 days. FWIW, Bears have been getting shorter since 1987 (87 was 55 days and 90 was 87 days long). It sure looks like we are in the middle of one.As far as Dell goes it looks to be a great buying opportunity over the next 8 weeks as we test the lows going into Sept and Oct. Article I read today says Compaq wants to be number one in notebooks....mentioned Dell as number 5. What is Dell doing to increase their share of notebook sales?? Good Luck All
