• What's your position on Apple (AAPL)? Over the past month, you advised to sell momentum, sell tech, don't own after the Goldman Sachs Tech conference. Today on Stop Trading! and Mad Money, you made positive comments on Apple about the iPhone. What gives?

• Will Thornburg Mortgage (TMA) survive? Its next earnings release should be pretty scary with $300 million in margin calls (and that may be just the beginning). I own series F preferred (TMA-PF) and was thinking about averaging down on this news but, does preferred give me any added protection? I'm afraid these guys will go insolvent or their assets will lose the AAA rating. Then what? Are these logical fears, should I exit the position? I just lost a year's worth of 10% dividends in a single day.
