Holy crap, I'm sorry I slept in this morning. I'd have been all over CMGI in the 90s like a duck on a junebug. Then again, I might have had a heart attack and died at $87, so maybe I'm glad I slept in.

Still extremely long.....

I put in a market order for 1000 shares this morning when the stock was at $92 with DLJ Direct. It finally filled 17 minutes later at $128 1/2! I called and explained the situation with customer service. Five minutes ago they sent me an Email that said the price was reduced to $110! I don't know if the rest of you get any satisfaction from your brokers, but I guess I am happy with DLJ!

I put in a market order when the stock was 89. It was 10.01 AM. It took Datek full 7 minutes to fill my order. During that time the stock had moved from 89 to 87 1/4 and then to 95 and on... I decided to cancel the order and the moment I cancelled at 10:08, Datek said the cancel did not go through. Lucky me, it got filled at 94 7/8.

I have noticed this with Datek. The market order would sit around and the moment I go to cancel it, Datek says the order has been executed. Could there be some hanky-panky going on or is it just a coincidence.

I am planning to hold these shares for the long haul!
