I feel the same way waiting for the other shoe to drop, I will not chase stocks esp. in this market. Good trading.

Obviously, Banchee, you know more than many. Having these concerns is the prudent move. Too easy to speculate when you hear of big gains everywhere. But minimizing loss is a BIG part of seeing long term gains that stay. . . the only kind that count. Of course selling high plays a big part in that. Too bad it never reached 7.50 for you. SIII is on my list of "January Effect" focused longs. That group continues to outperform the market by quite a distance. If it isn't SIII, it is NSOL, or ATHM, or BDCM or ADPT or ADBE or SEEK or T or AMZN. And yet some gains are credited to blind speculation...in the face of uncertainty. Definitely plenty to concern ourselves with this month. . . Rande Is

For clarity sake, Banchee and all. . . I never give advice. I merely point out the pros and cons or express what I might do. Passing advice on equities is reserved for licensed brokers, which I am NOT. You will NEVER see me say "Buy THIS" or "Sell THAT." On SIII, I pointed out that risk had increased in waiting 2 days before jumping in. SIII did well for some of us here. But we try to enter all trades with eyes wide open to the risk levels and downsides. You were wise and prudent to pass at the point you did, IMO. Despite the rise in price at end of day. Just avoiding any misunderstandings. . . Rande Is
