Your's, Ha, it will be in the lawyers pocket after their class action lawsuit, just like the lawyers against TYCO did to me.
Good call Bill. Not so good for the investors. I have shares in a top 500 index fund. I still take a hit but it's spread out a little. Sorry for you guys taking a hit. Stocks are a form of gambling in a way. Any company on any given day can jump on a rollercoaster ride. Long term it may come back just fine but it's either cut and run or stay on the roller coaster and hope for the best. One thing I've learned from the past. Diversify, diversify, diversify. I'm still way down from my high but I still have some eggs ln my basket.
