My condolences. I had been contemplating a purchase of RAD since the initial recommendation, but after putzing around (technical term for us procrastinators...) the original bad news came out, then more, then... well you know the rest. At that point, it reminded me a whole lot of CD, or at least the part about how long it's taken them to get a modicum of respect on the street even after they turned it around(which is still a work in progress...). Even if everything clears up for RAD now, I think it's going to be a long haul to get the street back on it's side, and the stock price back up to even the mid-teens.
I stick by my earlier statements that I like to watch and look and see how the new recommendations trade for a while before/if I take the plunge. I know I miss out on some stocks doing it that way, but every now and then I get lucky, and it makes me feel more comfortable. I bought SFA, and CLB a good while after they intitially showed up, at much lower prices... Heck, I watched for over a year with QCOM, and that will probably go down as my all time luckiest purchase ever.
