RE: Point is there will some people who will be bullish, some who are bearish
No, the point is, some people made money, and some didn't. Making money in stocks is an attempt to predict the future. Some people did a better job at that than others. Anyone who is habitually bearish, or habitually bullish, doesn't do a good job of predicting the future.
I thought it would be interesting to see what people were saying, as MSFT was cresting, and on the verge of losing a few hundred billion in market cap.
I posted all the cautionary posts I could find. All 3 of them. And I had to wade through oceans of wild euphoria to find them. My point is that this thread was, and is, far too bullish.
I posted yesterday that I'd just taken a large position in MSFT, including 2002 LEAPs, when the stock was at 66. I also posted, for several weeks before then, why I was not yet ready to buy. You are welcome to repost that in the future. I'm confident that, from this buy-in price, I'll make money longterm. I also still have 20% cash, to buy any further dips, in MSFT or a few other stocks I'm following.
