no short selling. Just bought a little stock which I may keep a long time...and wanted to see what the worst deal was...I aws thinking it could fall so low I lose what I put in but that is the extent of my risk...and that seems to be right.

That was my pressing concern as it was really very little money - I just wanted tp see what this stock market was all about - but then after making said purchase (which I still have) I got the fear that I could lose more than my investment...which it seems you have put to rest.

I have heard a bit about the short-sell stock and all that and I am not that much of a gambler...and not wise enough on the market in general to make that be anything more than a gamble for me.

Thanks Kuze..
