Anyone who never losses on any investments is new such as yourself
or is willing to hold on to a bad investment until/if it comes back. A
good case & point was Home Depot 5 years ago it was around $50.00
then droped back to $40+/- and just sat there for the next 4.5 years.
So anyone that got in around the high and wouldn't take a loss made
no money (not even counting infation) for 4.5 years. The real trick is
to figure out when to bail and when to hold. People that hold stocks
like this are the first to sell when it gets back to were they bought it
at, compounding there mistake by selling when the stock is finally
producing.

I have been in and out of SYMC a couple of times and will more than
likely buy it again. IMHO buy and hold stratagy is pushed by the
brookers so they can reap the big profits and leave the crumbs for
the little guy.
