"If you're long stay long and bite your nails in a month. If you're short then cover your x$$x because once the climb in share value starts it will not end for months and months. "

You seem to be waxing optimistic today Poly. It is not likely that any stock will be going up for months without some small setback and not necessarily small. We could well be hit by more economic woes to which the ROF plays are, as we've seen, not immune. It just makes good sense to be open to it. Some think we'll fly high right through the summer. Maybe we will, maybe we won't. Go away in May is a very strong and time honoured trend in the market and many will do exactly that. I've seen stocks rise right through this time, but more not. Every investor should be watching closely unless they don't care to play the swings, then my commentary is irrelevant to those not concerned with doing this.
