I've got to give credit to MGL. He held true to form...wrong in all of his hype and non PM related imminent world wide doomsday threads. still batting 100%.

That is no reason to give him credit. >>
Judging from how it has been going on the forum, most post AFTER that they "made" a good sale, successful trade etc, not BEFORE. As it turns out his trade was not a good one, but the credit that i was referring to was the fact that he hasnt come in here after all the bashing and make excuses for the trade etc. That isnt the norm for some people that frequent this forum. So many quick to jump on a bad deal, yet most forget or dont even respond to the good trades/sales.

I do appreciate what your saying, but I wonder what his motives were to make a post like that anyway. MGLICKER threw out so much investment advice and econmic opinions so often on these boards and was so wrong in his assessments that to post a trade like shorting BA I thought was like the other hogwash he spewed and akin to bragging. Just my sense.

No clue on motives, just looking at what was presented.
He isnt the only one that spews tons of investment advice on here, right or wrong. Just sayin...

The OP would have had to pay the dividend out as well so his cost basis is higher then $133.06.

Same would have been applicable to most DOW stocks. The long overdue correction has finally arrived. My guess, we have another 5%-10% to go.
Thank goodness! These markets really needed to take a breather from their intermediate-term trends, for the sake of their long term health.

The reality is, almost no one will keep a losing short for long in these conditions.
