When looking for the big call, such strategy also increases risk. Those who take the bigger risks who normally come away with the bigger gains, but if they fail they also take the bigger loss.

Don, I can't agree with this. By doing the research and finding an undervalued stock which is in an explosive earnings growth phase with the big money flowing into it, you can do very well investing in it and with low risk. it is not something that you decide overnight. It takes weeks and months to do the research and study how the stock is trading. The example I give is MERX this year. Your QCOM example failed because it was a momentum stock, it had nothing to do with real value or real earnings growth.

So it depends on how you make that big call. If it is based on momentum then it is likely to be short lived and you'll get burned. But if you base it on extensive research and a true understanding of how a stock is trading and why then it can be highly rewarding with low risk. It's what I call "becoming one with a stock." Only then can you know its full potential. I don't expect to find such a stock every day or month, but I don't have to. If I find such a stock just once a year I wouldn't have to do much else.
