Hey Mohan, This kinda sums up my day!! Bored I guess, but my wife was amused!! A little xmas spirit!!! ( OK so I'm no good at poems either) Twas the night before riches, and all through SI All the posters were screamin, buy, buy, buy, buy! The children were nestled, in ( thank goodness paid for ) beds, While dad planned to get rich, with Onsale, Navr and aweb. So with the coffee brewin, and dad loggin in, The room came alive, with CNBC and Joe Kernan. Online with Schwab, SI, and all websites found. OH NO JOE, WHAT? The futures are down. No matter, these stocks, are all internet you see! And look, there up, in pre market activity. Never mind the runup that these stocks have been on. I've got a plan!!! It just cannot go wrong! Then just like clockwork, the market did open. OK, Ready and , whats this, the websites not workin? With crashin and bangin and oh hey the telephone!! Dad was determined, these stocks he would own!!! And then what to his wondering eyes should he see. But a quote showing Onsale, DOWN 23!!! He knew in an instant what it was going on. Just a dip, a chance to buy!! It won't last long. Hey broker, do this and please, please hurry!! Sell aweb, buy Navr, Eggs and Cnkt! Wheres Onsale, Up Bamm, Oder status....please. No limit, just market,...GIVE THEM TO ME!!! Then as quick as they did rise, the stocks were all fallin. And on SI, and yahoo, the shorts came a callin. I'M SHORT, I'M SHORT all those bears they did post. These prices are too high, AND I"M SHORTING MOST!!! There is a moral to this story you do see. BUY LOW, SELL HIGH, or you'll be writing poems like me!!! Geez....Too much time on my hands!! LOL D.
