<waiting for very undervalued situations to develop or present themselves.>

There already are very undervalued situations presenting themselves, and investors interested in this sector are mistaken if they believe this is going to persist. I say step up and take some cuts, and feel strongly we are going to hear a lot of "shoulda, woulda, couldas" here after the fact.

I'm not so sure someone starting now will continue to have the luxury of waiting. A stock like MFL and FGX may just suspend trading and open up 400% after a takeover, so you just have to be in those. And POG? Who knows when one of these little rallies is the real one? They don't ring a bell do they? I see a name like SWG as a ground floor play that could go to 50 over a decade (or a lot sooner), so I haven't a clue where you buy it, but my cost of $3 seems close enough. To those who held out for $2.80, congrats you may more astute (or luckier) than me. I prefer not to get that cute as the stocks are thin and trade funny.

No, I'd get a good core position established right now. And be prepared to lose money on some names too. Then have a reserve on hand for exploiting stocks trading in a vacuum that get ignored (sometimes for awhile) after excellent developments.
