I'm thinking of feeding some blister bug laced alfalfa to SRTY!
(No, I really wouldn't do that. Blister beetles cause extremely painful colic in horses.)
It would be better to just get off SRTY and shoot him!
But, then again, NO! It's just when you think he's beyond dead that he picks himself up and makes an incredible dash! Just like that horse in Faldango.
The trick, obviously, is to be riding him at just the right time!

I thought I was being cute with Dryships this week. It is reporting this week, and the street expects bad numbers, and figured the shorts would hit the stock early this week.

I just checked some pre-market quotes. DRYS is one that's down $.25 (at the moment) on pre-market. And Uncle is not going to be happy with JVA ( I don't think ).. it's down, too. But 30 minutes from now.....numbers will no doubt be different. Blame it all on the market makers.... ?

"Too bad SBS quit the board as she may eke out a win this week". SBS quit? The pressure too great? Does not seem like she would quit the board. This is SAD news.

SlowbutSure,............these comments on the board.. What's going on?... Is this perhaps all private, and none of our business? Can you share anything?

It gets worse with Chinese small caps, most are hovering just above 52 week lows. The strange thing is one of the most maligned, YONG, has been doing well. Go figure. Looks to me that TPI could not even make a decent junk yard horse.... I think it might not even be good as glue. Oh well, Rovo warned about these nearly two years ago in no uncertain terms. Those who listened are ahead, my China experiment is doomed currently
