This market is like "The Death of a Thousand Cuts!" We just keep getting chewed a little every day. Down 19% for the last two weeks, but still up 48% for the year.

I am not going to make any moves. I figure Qualcomm will roar back on the next earnings report, and I am still 20% Cisco, and hoping it will finally move after the nest earnings report.

I think we will move down some more. If I was sure of it, I would sell and buy back in, but my record on timing like that is horrible.

Uncle Frank,

Thanks for saying that but the credit really goes to Mike for bringing Gemstar to my attention a few years back.

Regards,
Stew

Frank,

Thanks for the nice comment about Gemstar. I look forward to seeing Stew's reaction, but mine is that anticipation of the news is already built into the price of the stock, at least on a relatively short-term basis. The really good news is that AOL apparently isn't negotiating to buy Gemstar, as had been rumored.

As an owner of Gemstar and with you as an owner of AOL, now we're business partners. :)
