Sepster, you said "I expect most of the current posters will be long gone by then (something to look forward to)."

And that is supposed to mean what, exactly? That you're proud to have held a stock from $275 down to the $40 range? Of course you're not. It sucks.

What you are essentially saying is that any negative views are unwelcome here. Cheerleading only. I frankly appreciate the negative issues being raised and you won't get this from the standard trade press. Not until WAY AFTER it matters anyway. You should dissociate the delivery METHOD (or the person) from the information, and study the information. I think you are dismissing or rose-coloring the information because you don't like the delivery method and/or the person.

If you objectively study the information that has been presented, and the rebuttals, I don't see how you can possibly conclude with any level of confidence what you have concluded. You are simply repeating what the few still-bullish (publicly anyway) analysts are saying, because what they are saying supports what you are doing (buy and hold).

The other things being said don't support what you are doing so you steer your thoughts away from them.

I won't convince you to change your outlook. At least have a limit to your B&H where you get out with a profit still intact. Nothing sucks more than having a several hundred percent profit turn in to a loss that requires several hundred percent gain to get back to break even.
