Great- but u should have averaged down, or retained profits with this VOLATILE stock right now...but be ready to pick it up again..but i do recommend options to best leverage your new-hopefully not lost- profit.

This was one of the stocks I picked for long term dividends.
I had planned to be in this stock for a few years.
I use two brokers one for long term investments and one for trading.
I did not use a stop. Big mistake.
I purchased after the Feds said that both Fannie and Freddie Mac would have access to Fed funds.

See ya
