Right on... "back at the beginning of February (Dell at 55), advising everyone to buy more dell" and also to load up on margin. I remember Mr. Voltaire's posts were among those doing the raving and cheerleading, but the day after earnings he mentioned that he had indeed sold half his position as well as those of his friends or clients ahead of earnings. I remember putting him on my s**t list at that point, even though everyone has the right to change their mind:) I admit being influenced by all that enthusiasm, and resisted my urge to sell. So here I sit, weeping as I am forced to sell some of my dell at this price to pay some unforeseen bills:)
