Tony,

Thanks for the note, and yes it's true, "hogs get fat, and pigs get slaughtered." This isn't the first time I've been burned, but I do hope it's the last. From now on, I'm setting price targets and exiting when I reach the target, providing the particular stock isn't in an obvious upswing. With CPQ, once it recovers I'll put a stop at the appropriate point, and then never look back after selling it.

Regards and good luck,

JMaz

tonyt, you know what's real funny? When, and if, CPQ goes back to $50 all us shareholder's will do the same thing again, and hold the stock thinking it's going higher!! Human nature, or just plain greed and stupidity!! One of the above!
