I was considering going long with Priceline.com this week, as they report sometime this week, but I cannot in my wildest mindset, pick a stock trading over a $1,000 a share. wouldn't want to short a $1,000 stock either  So, I chose Roundy's Inc. this week, and will short it. RNDY, short it.

Looks like uncle may have a good week if his "horse" does not get tired near the end of the week. Needs to get out the whip if EMES starts to slow. It's been a good start. |

Today trading in $44 range I was willing to take it at $26.

I saw the difference this morning and wondered about that! Congrats VB, Mod & Clark! |
