Casteel & Wolf ... been there, done that ! I wouldn't worry .... perhaps you paid a little bit of a premium for these 2 stocks but with the forward momentum and 2 for 1 coming up for both stocks you guys are OK. I bought CMGI last spring @ $51 .... stayed long until January, sold some Dell and bought CMGI again at $154 after the 2 for 1 ( got greedy ). Got caught in that little internet bubble correction and decided to wait it out until it climbed back up .... which it finally did. It got up to a little over $200 and then started back sliding again. I sold that last 200 shares @ $170 and bought ATHM and GBLX. A few days after I sold CMGI announced a 2 for 1 ( big surprise ) and the stock ran back up again. I felt like I just stepped in dog shit with my brand new sneakers on ! KUDO's to you guys for being honest ! All you ever read on the threads are the great success stories and nobody ever talks about the bad timing purchases. Good luck this week, Mr Gardener
