PCCC became the target of momentum players. The game can work both ways, if it's overbought then it gets shorted. PCCC got a mention after the market yesterday on CNBC and as such a lot of eyeballs were on it all day. If your unfamiliar with how it works spend some time reading the following thread:

I'd caution anyone (casual investor) to be very careful about trading on stock's that are put forth to be a good buy on the above thread as Toyko Mex has a private subscription newsletter and many time's when it gets played on the public thread it's too late to get in. I scan his thread using the ticker for stocks I'm looking at to see what the crowd is reading, not for good stocks to buy.

Craig,

I did the same, getting in between 27-28. Two things to consider is that this stock makes money and does a fair amount of sales. The second is that they have not announced a deal or anything to offer web/auction, and supposedly will be on Squawk Box Monday morning.

This also looked decent at the close, unlike UBID and MZON, which didn't.

I'm not saying you'll get 100, but I would think that 30 is not unreasonable. Too bad you sold at a loss though, you'll miss the tax deduction.

Regards,

G
