I'm not so sure I agree. Look at the chart since September.

I know my gut was tumbling along with the price when it went from 50 down into the low thirties in a week or so. I'm happy now though I continue to be amazed by the spreads that occasionally exist on WIND. Today as it went up to 50 on the ask the bid stood pretty firmly on 49 or 49 1/16. Talk about greedy MMs!

Today I called Schwab and if I heard it right the person I spoke to said that WIND is NOT on the list and that the margin maintenance requirement is the standard 30%, not the special 50%. However, WIND is still showing up on their posted list so I sent an email to get a written clarification. (Perhaps the posted list has a clerical error?)

BTW, UPS just delivered my new Kodak DC260 digital camera (with VxWorks inside)!

I take it all back. I can't believe the company would miss their quarter, what are Lehman thinking? -- they just announced a split! The stock will be $22 in two weeks...
