Jacob, like Gottfried said and I repeat: --- "Good Post!"

This Thread sure would love to learn more about your Good Strategies in AMAT investing.

RE "the investor who does best in AMAT
is:
sometimes bullish
sometimes bearish
sometimes certain
sometimes confused
sometimes on the sidelines

These investors have the best chance of buying at the bottoms, and selling at the tops."

Great! It's even Greater if these Investor's qualities could be rolled into One Investor capable of Multi-mode Swings. Example: ---

When in the 1995-96 Bear market his "sometimes bearish" mode made him short the stock to gain a rounded figure of 70%;

and when in the following 1996-97 Bull market his "sometimes bullish" mode made him buy the stock to gain 398.28%

and then by using his "sometimes confused" mode he sold short and gained another 70%;

and then by having a "sometimes certain" mode he bought and gained 966.67%'

and now by being in "sometimes on the sidelines" he is doing nothing except reading with Glee the Political OT Posts in this thread --- he is certainly a winner, probably the Best among the Best!

... but he will surely notice that his Bullish moves gave him greater returns than his bearish moves even if his timing in buying is terribly off by buying at the top.
