You raise an interesting question with your SEPR story.

What's the biggest discount anyone has bought back a stock at with respect to previously selling it?

I recently bought some MFNX back at less than 1/10 of what I sold for last spring, never dreamed I'd see the day when I sold it, though I feared it would drop some. And I missed the top by selling too early, I was besides myself with the way the market had been acting...

I doubt I'll ever have the courage to be fully invested in my brokerage account again though, it may even have been a matter of luck that something bad didn't happen with the market from 1999-2000 when I was holding. A lot could have gone wrong, no?
