yeah, he's getting killed off that herbalife short too.

he takes too much risk his one fund was like 20% short HBL

Yeah, he is trying to prove a point. Ned Davis said it right, "Do you want to be right, or make money?" He obviously was an astute investor at one time, but i would not invest a penny with him if given the opportunity.

I recently almost dumped some serious money into RENN. They moved back their earnings a few weeks and there were strong rumors of a buyout from BIDU or another major Chinese company that isn't managed by complete buffoons like RENN. Thankfully I didn't. Earnings were worse than expected, which is saying something. Closed at $3.35 and after market trading had it dropping below $3.

I saw that CAMT tanked later on in the day, did you get out before it got bloody? I've read up on buying put options and how you can turn a profit based on the stock tanking if you're able to sell it. Did you buy one of those?

Not all stocks are optionable. To have options on their stock, companies must meet several criteria. CAMT doesn't have options.

I put a stop limit sale at 4.30. It crossed that yesterday morning. I came away with a slight loss, like $200. I should have sold when it went up the day before. I do like the company though, so i may renter if it starts to move upwards again
