>> It is amazing how smart it is sometimes to swallow one's pride and take a small loss.<<
Sarmad, I learned my lesson last June. It's not that I'm smart. I just hate pain. Do you know that pride won't kill pain?
I know that. Trust me on that.
Ps
Actually it was the lesson I learned from Amzn. Don't short a stock with a small float that the elephants and William like.

Talking about shorting ebay, my li'l brother at UCLA called to tell me today that he shorted Ebay at 280 pre split.....and covered at 510 ! I felt very sad for him, especially since I had been holding long positions. It was like wealth transfer ! Feel terribly guilty for no reason !
