Ya, I thought so. It seemed a bit like the writer was trying to justify a bad trade. I do it myself, but it doesn't matter what a stock has going for it. If it's not going up, it's not going up.
I come back to my desk to see that PMTI hit my sell price at $15.74, but they did not take my shares... maybe later. Noted that my KNOT shares went earlier for twe bucker at $14.
