>Well I should preface this by saying I am bitter and and angry at myself for a sale I made of JRJC. It alone could of made this a wonderful qtr... a real mess up yes I made 60plus% who cares when it goes up 300% in 6 days which brings me to the uncomfortable elephant in the room-- something unnatural is starting to happen with the Chinese stocks some really weird ones are going crazy like this-

Yes 50% in a day and there's more than a few 20plus % gainers out there too..
look at the vol change average 16K zzzzzzzzz now over 700,000 it's sort of a chinese attack by either the individual investor or desperate hedge funds... it's as if everyone is suddenly deciding the only way to invest is Chinese. This is starting to make me uncomfortable but of course am I just embittered by my F* up sale and inability to hold on to a winner. par usual?? FMCN acted great today! Sold that one too a while back. The market can more than humble you it can make you hate yourself even when good things happen and that's psychologically dangerous I think. Can't even celebrate a good trade these days-- at least not if it's Chinese related. This is starting to feel like a crowded pool but lets just agree to swim carefully and no one bump into each other and maybe we can float around a bit longer....

PS Did you notice the Chinese fertalizer company had a PE of 25 not bad!
