Sorry Jack I think I just smited you and thought it was smile...I'm getting too old for this little screen...now I don't even see how or where i did that and how I can change it if I did...was looking for karma? Cash...you know how much I truly adore you. To learn that you have "Smited" me is NOTHING compared to the simple recognition of you addressing a post to me which I will cherish into eternity or at least until dinner time. I am humbled by your presence here and hope that you will continue. Now....what I wanna know is WHY CAN'T YOU reply to the e-mail I sentcha yesterday about CVM's report which showed that they've managed to arrest the progression of RA (in mice). LOL LOL LOL!!! honestly we need more people to smite others. what's the fun in having everyone have 50 max karma. lol and we need someone to get negative 50 first too. lol

Kryptos et alia,
I said it before and I'll say it again (and 2000 viewings prove it.)
There's a market for real-time market analysis. Whoever develops a program which does that will make a mint.

Jack I'm going to look at my emails...I'm soooooo bad...I can't seem to keep up lately. Wintertime is no good for me...even in the deep south....I'm going to grab UK and go to the islands for some trading on the beach....anyone else want to go? Pina Coladas (can't spell) and risque outfits with crazy hats making $ on the beach...somewhere where the taxes are preferably lower!....Elle..., anyone want to join in the fun?! Not too sure about that strip poker though...lol
How do I do karma and what are the smiles?

Cobra today, by the way, comments on the dearth of large neg ticks today. I agree with him. I don't know who he is, but he is very clever. I read his blog before any other.

Hey all was crazy busy today at work glad to know I was missed (by at least one of you thanks Merrill LOL). Couldn't watch the ups and downs b/c I was in mtgs, but refreshed the Blackberry every now and then just for kicks, which was cool since everything was going my way today.
The balanced 100% short portfolio that I built (exalted yesterday by UK) made some good cash today, specifically on my shorts of PCX, TIE, and CREE in the trading acct.
My two laggards were my VXX long and my HD short, so I took profits on the winners and added to those two. I think there is more volatility ahead and HD looks ready to fall off a cliff.
Unloaded PCX a bit early at $15.95 but I shorted that thing at $17.70 so I'll take a one-day profit of 10% anytime
Shorted TIE at $12.29 yesterday and covered today at $11.75, +4.4% gain
Shorted CREE at $66.51 yesterday and covered today at $64.14, +3.6% gain then reshorted at the close ($64.64)
Sold the ERY that I bought 3 days ago at $11.04 right at the close at $11.82, nice 7% gain on that one
Also dumped at the close the TZA that I bought last week at $9.43, maybe a 5-cent loss
So the IRA is now 40% cash then 60% EDZ/FAZ/DRV
The trading acct is long VXX, short HD, and short CREE.
Once again I hope to have more free time tomorrow to play, but it's annual operating plan time so it's all work and no play for me...
Catch you all bright and early tomorrow!

Uka, I have a theory about DDSS, other than the price indicates. Read above on Level II
Read on the DDSS board (among 4 quintillion basher posts) that Labopharm CEO was upset about how the stock was treated after FDA announcement. Suppose.........just suppose, keeping hope alive........that they are the ones selling into Level II, keeping the price low, so that this time they will have the reverse experience. Even though Q3 was not good, it will only serve to make Q4 look better. And the quintiles news here and there could actually have some legs.
