I'm with you, Jeff, and have allowed sufficient maneuvering room to give me the chance to "double up" my positions at the bottom. No one knows the exact time frame for a correction, because so much 401(K) money keeps coming in to forestall it time after time. But market breadth this horrid at the high is a sign that something is wrong. Offsetting that is the relatively low level of insider selling; of course, that could be rising as we speak, since filings come well after the fact, usually.

Sorry...I'm rambling.

New Iridium stock symbol, "IRID". Effective Monday, March 1st. No jokes about "I rid...",etc., please.

Seriously, though, anyone have an opinion why the change? The "F" in IRIDF and GSTRF and ICOGF signifies a foreign (Bermuda) corporation, so dropping it must have some implication, but I'll be damned if I know what it is.
