Dear Kevin: There have been many studies made as to which is most successful over time Trading vs Holding. In every case Holding always won out. Two reasons that I can think of 1. Uncle Sam he shares as our silent partner and its tough to overcome him. 2. Timing, most stocks diddle around for some time then suddenly out of the blue, they take a big run only to diddle around again. Pretty hard to time when the run is starting and JUST AS HARD to time when its ENDING. So a trader has to be great at buying AND selling. A holder just has to find the right company and be patient. IMHO SUNW is in the right place, at the right time, with the right product, in the right investment climate. JDN
