IBM...I keep forgetting this one as it goes into my LT acct and my mother's trust, but....early in July, Manny T. asked me about it and I replied I was a buyer at 102-103. I bring it up not to gloat but to emphasize something that has cost me countless thousands (more like tens of thousands) of dollars to learn: buying profitable, name-brand companies at key support areas will make you a ton of money...it's just slow and unexciting (until you get your monthly and quarterly statements). Imo, this is a healthy and necessary balance to the gambler's "juice" we all get from chasing the tech/bio/fiber stock du jour. I am primarily chastising myself here but if my words of conservatism help save anyone else from mistakes I've made (and sometimes keep making), then this is not a wasted post--MK--
