I got in around 140, out at 160, back in at 170. wish I would have picked up more!

it hurts to buy it now vs. what I paid just a couple months ago!

ditto. picked up some at 108.10, i'm kicking myself now for not buying more.

and the worst part is i could still buy more now at close to twice the price knowing it'll continue to go up but i just can't hit the buy button knowing how much i paid for it only a short time back!

That's going to leave a mark :confused:

You know Cramer said the stock should be valued at $390 last night, right?

I doubled up on my puts on XLF.

I've gone from bull to bear, and think we're going to experience a huge crash that's going to be spearheaded by financials.

Still long on select names mentioned in this thread.

Does this mean we'll see a buying opportunity with RMBS and APPL? :)
I lost a chunk w/ my Jan options on RMBS but if RMBS will track w/ the market crash then I would load up on some reg. stock of RMBS and see how things pan out next yr.

Yes, buying puts means you're negative on the equity. It's a financial SPDR ETF. I bought March 2010 $11 puts.

Haha I like Apple, but Cramer also said to buy AMD when it was at $42.

I haven't done much research, but why hasn't APPL paid a dividen in such a long time? With how well they are doing, you think they could reward their investors.

I've never invested in AAPL, have only traded it in and out and haven't taken a deep dive investigation on its financials and future products to make a recommendation.

As for RMBS, obviously, you know my stance, and it hasn't changed. 10,000 shares w/ speculative options in Nov '09, Jan '09, Feb '09.

To answer your question directly, yes, with any market crash nearly every stock will follow it down. Tech stocks especially. But I'm not willing to sell out now only to miss out on something greater later on. The XLF puts on the financial sector provide enough of a hedge for me.

I mis-spoke, he was screaming about Apple being a $390 dollar stock.

He really makes me crazy, but sometimes he gets it right...

iPhones go on sale in China next month, more cell phone users there than the entire population of the US, if Apple even captures 1% of that market...........
