At the rate it is going it will only get worse. I would not be surprised to see it drop down to under $110 a share.

It will bounce back of course although in the meantime you will keep losing.

Of course I could be wrong.

As expected, Shrek 3 is once again dropping like a stone. It is down -10.71 already this morning. I think that people are dumping it because they think that it is commission free now (not for a couple of hours), and they want to get rid of it. It will likely increase again this time tomorrow.

Wow the estimated adjust for AW80D is 22 or minus 30 or a 1.5 million loss for those long.

I am going to regret this one

The numbers are up at BOM, and they match what you've got.

Looks like Around the World in 80 Days is a collossal bomb. Ouch.

This isn't gonna be as bad as I thought for my main account, but for my secondary account, I'm gonna drop A LOT.

I really thought AW80D was gonna do really well.

And TRMNL, too! Sigh...

AW80D is the first movie I've held long through the opening weekend since I held Girl Next Door.

How cool am I?

I held all three long. Looks like UDOGS and AW80D will cancel out, leaving me with the pain of TRMNL.

I am going to take a loss on 80 Days, but hopefully the Terminal and Dodgeball will make up for it.

I just noticed the strike price for Spider-Man 2 is $130. Wow. Personally, I don't think that it is going to make it, but who knows. Wouldn't be the first time I have been wrong.

$130 million!? thats extremely optimistic. Even if it were to explode at the theaters, I dont think you could really make a whole lot of profit off a call on that one.

Woohoo... I should do pretty well this weekend! Makes up for 2 disasterous weekends.

I bought TRMPU, AW8PU and shorted TRMNL, AW8CA. Happy me!

Spidey opening on a Wednesday might help, though. Isn't the $130 for Wed-Sun? If it isn't, I agree, seems high.

Looks like it is for Fri-Mon, so I for one think it should make that easy and then some. Probably in the 150-160 range.

Do you find you buy and sell without thinking much about it during the commission free period?

I know I buy and sell without much thought about commissions which cause me to do alot of moving around.

Not that I make much more i just test more stocks


I assume those of you behind me will try to lose some money so that I do not fall too far when I lose my 1.5-1.8 million tomorrow right
