Dipy:

I have to say that you definitely have made me confused! On one hand you appear to have a Warren Buffet investment psychology of liking traditional stocks which pays dividend, and are very well established and are mostly outside of the tech sector (such as Exxon, Goodyear, Coca Cola, etc.). At the same time by your own admission you have 65% of your portfolio invested in a stock such as LSI which again by your own admission has poor performance track record and is due to be extremely volatile (if not overvalued) and mey even hit $30 or lower (or about 35% drop from its current price).

It is like having a loyal dog and yet keep putting him down in front of everyone and everywhere you go! You either get rid of the dog and get something else, or if you like the dog then it does not make sense (to me anyway) to put him down all the time and speak badly of it! Am I missing something?

You might find this funny, but in old Persia it was believed that in order to avoid jinx put on possessions and items one really liked, one would have to talk badly of those items and how terrible they were, etc. all the time so others would not put a jinx on it or as the expression went "the bad and salty eyes would stay away from you"!! Now could it be that you are doing the same thing ancient Persians did?! That is to talk badly of LSI in order to protect it from the "bad and salty eyes"?!!!

Regards, - Addi
