Cedar! Don't hear from you as much as we should!
In the case of DSX which trades average over a million shares of $10 plus stock, I don't think anyone will manipulate the market lower to try to snatch my couple hundred shares up at a better price. I could see that thinly traded co's could be subject to that, especially if you put a big block on a stop.
I just finished listening to a webcast from Don Coxe. www.donaldcoxe.com . He is an economist formerly from BMO, a strategist for their commodity funds. Interesting stuff, and something you gold bulls will like. He also mentions IBD's industry lists. I also like IBD's stuff www.investors.com.
Portee... Jeepers, another Comex goin bust article? OK, I will bet you a 40 oz of whiskey that Comex functions just fine. We'll give it till June (I'll need a drink after seeding), just so we don't drag this out forever. It was gonna go bust in Nov, Dec. Jan... Unlike predicting rain, it isn't an inevitable IMO, in fact it is highly unlikely IMO. Enough of the IMO... I"M O ff to bed!
