You are missing out buddy. Investors may never get an investing opportunity like we are seeing today, and you are letting it slip away.

You scare me, Nelson, and I am long this stock. I assure you that there will most certainly be much better investment opportunities in the future than buying either NSOL, YHOO, or AMZN tomorrow. That said, I am a long term investor in YHOO and AMZN.

Hey, I did not let it slip away. I have a large position in AOL, which made me tons of money.

As for cover at 285, it was just a luck limit order get filled. Am I going to be this lucky again next time? I am not sure. That is why I am not shorting YHOO until it catches up with AMZN. Do you think this will happen? I will be disappointed if this does not. I argued in this board before that AMZN is worth more than YHOO, and nobody agreed with me. Now, I think AMZN is even more overvalued than YHOO, and I may look at shorting AMZN in the near future.

I agree that it is dangerous shorting YHOO at this time with the earning and split coming up. That is another reason I covered at 285 rather than holding the position. I will short again when it reaches 450! So please help me out and get YHOO rolling!
