Probably a lot of the folks who frequent SI don't even want to log on and get caught up, market is in such a sorry state. Miss the old euphoria of spring--too bad the party ended, probably a lot of us were betting on a September or October correction/crash. Oh well, just part of the greed and the gambling! All there is to do now is slowly add to positions of your favorites on dips--we are back to investing. Accumulate shares, and hold. Tried to do some trading these past couple weeks--was not even able to break even on Ligand, which is plenty liquid. I zig, it zags/awful. Look on the bright side--everything is on sale! Unfortunately, when Coke and GE and MSFT finally suffer their bad days, don't expect there to be anybody loading up on micro-biotech... Oh well, a bit of a rant, apologies to anybody left on the thread. Save your cash--and when you inevitably hear breaking news: "DOW below 7000" "DOW below 6000" over the next few months, sneak in a few orders for your favorites --have some fun too, offer less than the ask and see if your order fires off--it's a buyers market now! eom
