Dave,

Sorry to hear about your unfortunate experience, particularly with your IRA.

I have had my share of securities with major downdrafts, and it is quite an experience in self-examination. The way I look at it is that when AIM's advice is to 'buy', that is probably one of the worst times to sell out of a position and I never do (rocks in my head); on the other hand, that stock you mentioned could have dropped all the way to zero. Who knows.

Someone made excellent comments in an earlier post about being sure to invest in the strongest securities since they always come back. Owning the best makes good sense to me.

Regards, Jack
