I added that stock to my portfolio, I must say that even with the market really SUCKING arse right now, I'm impressed that it only lost one cent! I also like the fact that it is cheap enough for somebody poor like me to easily buy blocks of 100 shares in. Thank you for the info and Happy Holidays amigo! It is definitely on my list to invest in after the beginning of Jan when people start selling off to get their profits and not have to pay taxes until next year.

You are welcome. But I am ambivelent about retaining the stock in the short term. It is a tech stock even if it is currently otc. there are many stock gurus out there predicting a correction in the market particularly the tech sector. Plus there is theJanuary tax sell off coming up. On top of that we have BSE worries in the commodities area and Al Queda threats. This sort of thing is why I get queasy when giving stock tips. On one hand I want to share what I think are good picks. But I don't want to be responsible for someone elses monetary choices. losing money hurts. I'd rather lose my own butt than be responsible for influencing someone who may lose thier money based on my own ideas.

Don't worry about the advice, I think all of us here are intelligent enough to know the market is a big gambling machine. Heck, even Erik Bethke told me to be careful with my money, hehehehehe. I just got lucky with ELAB and CACS, but yes, the tech stocks are needing correction soon, but with all the intel I'm getting from the P/C gurus here, I'm going to bet on AMD (plus they are a MAJOR Austin, Texas employer

).

BTW, I NEVER blame anyone for a stock going down, at least if I do invest and I know others on the forums have invested, we will do as in the military, we will go down TOGETHER, if it goes up, the better for US, right? Besides, when I was looking at CACS going consistently up, I posted about it, on Dec 1st I had a 33 percent profit margin off initial investment but I was stupid and waited, I ended up with about 24 percent, but at least I did something right. Being my first real investments in the future, I'm learning that December and beginning of January are hard months to judge by marketwise.

Thanks Erik and Ann for letting us talk of such things, I have learned a LOT about the way things work in life from people in these forums, and it makes me feel so peaceful and happy inside knowing we have all communicated and shared ideas and opinions for YEARS!
