13. Enjoy yourself. I drank heavily last night...and I am just drinking

a little wine tonight.

You might appreciate this story. I found out what happened to my stock this week.

The CEO got a margin call and had to sell 33 million shares yesterday. Because of his belief in the future prospects of his company, he has been buying his stock for years. Lots of it. Well, he bought much of it on margin (borrowed money from his broker).

Because of overall economic conditions probably not related at all to the health of his company, the value of the stock dropped so much this week that his broker forced him to sell 33 million shares into the market to get their money back.

With an average daily volume of probably 20 to 30 million shares traded, the sale of these 33 million shares put TREMENDOUS downward pressure on the stock price.

I swear, i thought i was going to have a heart attack these past few days watching it drop.

My hope is that with this event now out of the way, the stock will begin to rise slowly.

I'm just telling you all of this because I know that you and I are kind of in the same boat when it comes to investments. :hi:

[AlCzervik]

14. whoa, buying on the margin, that is some scary stuff.

I really hope it all works for you PB.


:hi: :hug:

15. Thanks...I hope the same for you...
