<<Buying high priced growth stocks wasn't engaging risk.>>

Just thought that was worth reprinting so you could read what you wrote. No comment needed.

<<They paid such a high premium for growth (they saw these stocks as inherently LESS risky that's why they paid up) that it effectively destroyed the return side.>>

This is 100% backward... do you think the high price of .com IPO's forced them out of business??? LOL, no didn't think so... internet riches [expected growth] didn't materialize.

<<Cheap is inherently risky, this is why people demand a higher return to engage it.>>

Again... you're disagreeing with Greenspan [posted]... are you meaning to do that?

<< DROOY at a dollar was unbelievably risky, there were good reasons it was high risk and it was priced according to that risk.>>

Can't disagree more... the stock is 4X the price now with POG up < 10%... the "reasons" you sight were perceived, the stock and group were out of favor plain and simple... as Heinz so eruditely pointed out at the time.

<<The highest returns come from engaging risk. >>

"Always" is never a good concept to use in real life... tell that to the .com stock owners.

We clearly disagree, I'll just drop it.
