USWB. Jenna, I'd appreciate your advice. Would you sell USWB here at a loss or hope that it will come back before earnings? Is USWB a high risk stock for holding through earnings? Thanks, Barbara

I have a question about your comments here. If I understand you correctly, your strategy is that if you anticipate that a stock will have a great earnings report, you buy it during the run up to the earnings release date and sell just before the earnings are released, and, or, buy it after the earnings are released and the inevitable sell-off has occurred. And, ordinarily, one should not hold the stock thru the earnings release, because of the usual sell-off. Am I on the right track? Thanks
