Problem is, everything is SUBSTANTIALLY cheaper than when I bought it at "great buying opportunity" prices.

I'm tempted to sell out of SKF for a quick profit.

Finally the downturn in economy is showing its ugly side. I having been waiting for the consumer based Tech companies like AAPL, DELL, RIMM, NVDA etc to go down for a long time. Right now the masses don't have extra money to spend on luxuries. Their only saving grace, when they post their earnings for this quarter, could be their revenues outside the US

EEV and SKF look safer then the rest. You can throw in DUG as well probably although that's due for a rebound, substantial or not.

I was doing well today until HXL fell off the the boat.
