IMO, this is all about adjusting multiples down on growth stocks. I have now been at this long enough to have seen 50% growers that sold for pe's of 25 or less, and also sold for pe's of 150 or more. So an investor with a strong leaning toward growth has a huge problem: 50% growers are selling at pe's of 50 still, and they can get cut in half again, easily. So in a nutshell, do you buy something with a future value of $200 bucks that is selling at $100, when it may well go to $50? Tough call. I say you mix it up, but it is an individual decision. One thing is for sure: stay focused on making money, any way you can. Don't get distracted. I find it amazing that I can pretty clearly lay out an argument of what I think is going to happen and why and what I think a good plan of attack is and get a comment back that indicates I have been completely misunderstood. For about three months now I have been slammed for being a bear or a bull sometimes in the same day. I am starting to revel in it.
