12/8 Wednesday - Easy come, easy go

It happened again!
I decide to buy more SIRI and the stock takes a dive again! Only this time I held on to them and lost plenty, though still above my initial total investment.

SIRI dropped 23.45% (dn $2.11/Share) today taking most of my gains away.

Today I tanked against the averages.

Details tomorrow.
