Re: Don't worry

Any comments on HSKA. It seems to be loosing 10 cents every week... I have seen it go from $2.68 to $1.05.

It hasn't gone per my plan, for sure. I see nothing wrong with the company, so I will hold.

Nice bounce today on most of my holdings.
There is hope, after all.

Just today ...
WITS +10.91% (back in black on buys at $11 and $13.30)
HSKA +15.00%
AUO +9.88%
HBIO +8.12%
SDGL +7.81%
PHMD +6.34%
SINT +3.93%

Bounce Hell, It almost looks like a GRAND SLAM!!!!!!!!!! GRATE JOB

Do you use T/A,,,, OR ,,,, do you use K/Y

Sure showed us who was BOSS today.

I must admit, It sure is nice when this happens. Can't wait to run my weekly % cheack this week. Keep on, getten along, little dadoggy. ===> MEA

Much as I'd like to claim being the BOSS, the recent activityis still either just a bounce, or could be a turnaround. Those one day numbers were great, but this is my current return (as of this moment) on those stocks, since the various buy dates:

WITS +7.65%
HSKA -55.85%
AUO -37.57%
HBIO -16.98%
SDGL -29.89%
PHMD -39.18%
SINT -13.12%

It's going to take a few more days like that to get back to even for the year.

[stenzrob]

FYI - I bought WITS at $11 and again at about $13.30.
I just sold the $13.30 shares for a very small profit for $13.55.

I still like WITS, but it had become 40% of my IRA portfolio and I had no cash there to take advantage of anything else.

HSKA

Glad I did not close my position - already up 35 % in last 7 days....(still down 46% from purchase price)

Hi Stenz, it's been a while. I took the summer off from investing because I've been too busy to keep track of things as well as I would have liked. I see lots of red there, so maybe I did myself a favor. If you were to start all over, what would you pick going forward?

Taking the summer off was probably a good idea, Chris. I wish I had. I'm still holding those positions, and I like them going forward. They don't have much momentum at this point, but I see nothing I like that does have momentum.

Just to reiterate a little of my philosophy: In my mind, it doesn't matter whether a holding is currently up or down. Only going forward matters. So, it's not inconsistent for me to have sold something like LENS at a loss if I have no confidence in the company going forward yet hold onto HBIO and others when they're down. I don't sell at a 15% gain if I see something continuing up. Like $$$MM$$$, once I buy a position, I will hold until the gains materialize. Unlike $$$MM$$, I will sell if I think the company has gotten into trouble and will experience further losses before turning around.

SNCI today
- 50k shares traded in the first hour, 1/2 the average daily volume.

One has to wonder what's up? I'm sure that with fair disclosure and all, nobody knows anything that isn't already public.

Sold LINK

LINK - Decent news flow. One deal (discussed on LINK board) with no PR. New PR this morning in another area of their business. Technicals look decent, with a several week long upswing from a test of support in the $7.50 area.

All of which means nothing to me now, because they announced a secondary offering yesterday, and I sold it all.

If you remember, I applied my experience with QUIN secondary to APTI when the same thing happened. No matter how much I may like LINK, I just don't see how buying pressure is going to move a stock up when the average daily volume is under 50,000 and they are going to put 1,750,000 shares on the market. That's over a months worth of demand!

Go WITS

[stenzrob]

Go WITS

Amen, brother!

[stenzrob]

WITS imminent breakout?

Go WITS

Will WITS finally break out of the trading range and run like a scalded dog? The volume is certainly there to support it. There is an interesting link in the WITS news section at Yahoo calling for large (~22%) annual market gains for WITS products from now through 2010. The link does not show up at other financial portals.

I had a lot more of this at one point and lightened up, but still holding the original position bought at $11 back in February, and it's still my largest holding. Used the proceeds from WITS-lightening to add to position in SINT.

SNCI also looks to be rebounding a bit. Still holding original position that's way underwater, and trading it a bit.

Wits

Where the heck are you Stenz??? We should be dancing in the streets.


I put over 50% of my wife's IRA in WITS in early April and I added in other accounts on 6/1...To be honest, in retrospect, it was stupid of me to go in so heavy w/o cutting losses...but now I don't feel so bad(dumb luck)...I should've sold and watched...and Bot back.

Anyway, WITS has closed up 11 of the last 12 months and 16 of the past 19 months. Looking at monthly charts it looks like a good B/O.
