Deals are popping up everywhere but are the deals really a deal. I thought AAPL @ 120 was a deal and than 100 and than 89. I might have to pick some more aapl below 80 but will it go even lower lol.

I'm somewhere between Harry Lange and Carl Icahn -- but unfortunately I didn't start with quite as much as they did. How's that commercial for the cell phone go -- I'm laughing on the dark abysmal inside?

There's only one way these days to ensure that you'll lose money in the stock market: buy some stock.
