I was willing to settle for $100, I think the century mark would be a psychological barrier.

I'll go with EFUT short again; if the company does not know why it is trading at the current level, I would expect it to return to a realistic valuation as soon as the traders are done playing with it...might not be this week, but since there is no penalty for losing, I'll risk it.

I'll be sitting the next 2 weeks out.

Taking the family to Disney World for the holidays. It's an annual trip for wifey and I, but the markets been good to me this year, so I'm flying the kids and grandkids in Friday after Thanksgiving to join us for a week.
Hope you all have a great holiday next week and have much to be thankful for too.

Good luck to you all and I'll be back Dec. 4th.

On Wednesday, Gen. John Abizaid, the top U.S. commander in the Middle East, testified before Congress and said that the use of military advisor teams embedded with Iraqi police forces needs to be expanded. This is very positive news for DynCorp since its largest contract with the U.S. government is for training police forces in Iraq. DynCorp is also in the running for three huge Army contracts (scheduled to be rewarded in 2007) to provide food and shelter to U.S. troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. I believe DynCorp has more than 30% price appreciation potential in the short term, and shares could move even higher in the longer term based on the catalysts cited.

A lot of takeover hype in steel. I'll go with X.
