i think you guys are making a mistake.
In all honesty. I expect nothing. I HOPE the company does well, I use the marine service. As I said back in 02/17 and others have reinforced, to buy and hold, in this market conditions, can get you slaughtered. I have never had success with buy and hold. I rode rite aid into the ground, and the CEO of Health South, MR. Richard S. literally waxed my bottom. So I prefer to maintain a position, yet be flexible enough to buy and sell on dips and pops.:)Quote:

I wanted to sell off some of my position, but I have no clue how to do it. And so, it looks like I'll be holding onto my shares for the battle royale that is sure to come tomorrow.
For those of you that are holding like me, GOOD LUCK TOMORROW... I think we are going to take a beating... let's hope for a miracle.:(
its just nuts that they can keep it this low, i think they are only doing it to get people to sell so the brokers can get more shares back in their own hands before they bring it up when no one is looking. Did u guys listen to maffei?

I'm holding for now - until I see something definitive to convince me otherwise... We'll just need to watch things closely like we always do. You are right... this thing IS still priced for BK - it's just a matter of time...
Alot of people have really lost the stomach lately for holding steady ... if you want an example - check out HGSI - they just dropped HUGE yesterday on some mediocre news and if you look at their numbers - they really aren't that bad off - and that seems to be happening all over in the markets now...
COS ,relmar, sl62 our so called leaders. What positive message could you be sending?You are all rooting for the stock to fall!!!!

If all is equal they will get spanked for this. I dn't know why companies try to get away with such things. It only makes the Street mad and it turns out worse. I hear you on the SP price. Not quite BK but BK-esque. BK pricing = CHTR. But yeah, hence the SI increase up to 170M. They got back in and decided to wait. It might not be as bad as before deal consummated..let's see.
Guys...I will say this one more time! I do not WANT nor will ROOT for this SP to fall. I still own 50% of my holding and a sizeable one at that. So chill...I want this SP to go up..in which case Iwill continue to profit. ONLY IF it goes down, I will rebuy. that simple...Quote:

the last report showed shorts decreasing not increasing
We'll see what tomorrow brings, but I'm encouraged by what Maffei said. If it goes lower, I'm adding more.
this is just too much for me to deal with right now. you would think they are going bk because they missed their estimate by 1 fkin cent

The report was bad news for me. They missed, and how much is not important in this market. I had one opportunity to get out with my principle investment back and commissions paid. One shot.......
So I took it.
I have enough cash to re-establish a position when the smoke clears and this thing has made a bottom, whatever that is, or I may put it in something more exciting as I rent stocks and don't like to hold them very long.
We will see how it shakes out wednesday and thursday.....
Had to pull the trigger.....
Thanks. I just finished watching it. It was a good interview, very upbeat. Its only at times like these that I miss tv.Quote:

Well I made a mistake and sold my Citi Group after hours last night and look what it did today, I am riding the long haul with Siri 100,000 shares, if I sell now I would only buy and lose in something else and my mone wont grow in my safe. Saddle up and I hope to see 50 cents by the end of the year, hopefully not a pipe dream.
Dude...NO. You're looking at Feb A ON Shortsqueeze. I checked it when this was posted today:Quote:

News Corp (NWSA.O) 34,961,658 29,217,118 5,744,540 19.7<<
Reuters Factbox always reports first and if you're ticker is on it, you get it first..even before Shortsqueeze or NASD because they report as gainers or decreasers. See that 158,752,423 up there? That's the Feb A number. The 170,953,171 is the Feb B number..reported as od Feb 27.
that increase is meaningless when it just dropped by half.
