The consensus is that you had a great opportunity to get out of your long-term leap position(s) (on the morning of October 8th) with a (relatively) minimal loss....and you chose the (unwise) strategy of waiting for a bigger, more sustained fall... Face it, Luke, you've been singing the same song for 7 months now, and the time premium is working way against you now....I warned you back in September that Greenspan had plenty of bullets in his gun...and that this put a floor on your "armageddon" scenario... Your bet is not that Dell's (stock price's) growth will slow (from 200-300% growth)...your bet is that the thing will collapse....Just think if you had concentrated on K-Tel! Unfortunately, it looks like (already) that the rest of world will recover before Japan..those turtles.. Well, if nothing else, you are persistent...although I don't know if this is (necessarily) good thing as an investor......as the song goes, "You got to know when to fold 'em"....Maybe, just maybe, you'll get a dip here shortly, so you can get a better selling op... And I thought you would wind up being the one marrying Carmen Electra....
