Freeus-

I got out two weeks or so ago, and took my profits. DELL is a great company, but an out of favor stock. Nothing against DELL, but you can't fight the tape. I think we may see the high 20s. Just too much selling. Waiting for things to turn decidedly positive before jumping back in. And yes, I will never use margin again.

If this trend continues much longer I will be getting out of margin whether I want to or not. I've got to believe we'll see a bottom soon

Yeah, I'd scale down the margin or your brokerage may decide arbitrarily to change your maintenance requirement and call DELL an internet stock!! Recently that has happened to a number of us (read earlier posts). When I cash out of the next few position trades I am definitely scaling back use of margin for just that reason. JMO, however.

Freeus, we've been through some rough times in the market. Remember October '97? I cautioned you then about the use of margin, and I caution you once more. In financial terms margin is leverage -- it magnifies profits in up markets and losses in down markets. I think you will sleep much better if you eliminated margin.

What happened to your BMCS holdings? You should be doing rather nicely in that stock.

Lynn, I think you need to be more patient.

TTFN,
