If you *sell*...realizing your 10%, yes, I'll admit that you met your investment goal, however small. But, if you decide to hold, well, I guess the jury will still be out, huh? ;-)
Now you also know that I'll have to point out that you had DEAD-MONEY for 11 months. In my, and many others opinion you wasted a lot of time waiting for this latest bounce. And if you say that there weren't any indications that the stock would be flat for most of 2005, that's just baloney. There have been many messages on this thread by myself, Elroy, and others (eventually, even YOU) that saw that.
Anyway, that 11 months would have been put to much better use even if the money sat in your savings account getting you 3%. Heck, you knew there was going to be a bounce in January...why get in 11-months early! :-)
So whatcha' going to do mind? |
