Really zuma, I gotta say something
>>Oh, but I forget - we need to swing into and out of the stock at every opportunity, pay 30% or 39% percent of our short-term gains to the government
It's like what tom is talking about and all that voodoo mojo. Thing is now, our humps are getting closer together, and becoming more violent(both ways). Like it or not, ckfr is entering into the arena of the 'nuts, and will be looked upon as such. by investors and traders alike(that's why I got a sour taste with the subscriber growth)
It's not a bad thing to shuffle things around once in a while, like you were talking about in a post a couple days back just because you can.
And I'll say this as well, I have never been so in love with a company(even my favorite blue chips), but I tend to look upon the stock as just another symbol.
Would I have done better in the past two years just hollding this stock and not shuffling it around? No. In fact, if I had sold just one other time on the voodoo, I'd not have died that fatal August evening when I was drinking everything I could get into. But it taught me something. Something I already knew, but I guess in reality, I'm the kind that learns from his own mistakes. Those are the ones for me that teach me the most. Teach me about myself, and my boundries.
If folks were to simply take their "internet blinders" off, you'd see that a double or so since the IPO three years ago ain't too shabby, and you could have done much better if you had the fortitude to buy on the slide down to $6 bucks (shucks - let's just round that one down to a quadruple in only two years)...
Again, like it or not, we're being looked upon as a 'nut. might as well change the symbol to ckdc, 'cause that's the road we're seen driving on. As far as quads and tripples, ask Tom or dave s. they know all about them. I think I only have 4 this year(ckfr one of them). But if you double something twice, that's close enough, so I figure I got close to 6 or 7 or more. it's not all bad giving uncle same 40% of 600%.
P.S. When you enter a position in a stock, do you ask yourself "What do I want from this?" I sure do. <end of story> |
