Everything is OK if you can slip at night and not think about your investments.

Oh, I sleep at night, no problem. I just don't slip enough at night (or at any other time, dogblast it!).

Ha, ha. Sorry, Slava, I couldn't resist it.

You could do better with mutual funds.

I already do better with mutual funds than with my individual stocks, a lot better. (I have two index funds, by the way: VFINX, the Vanguard SP500 fund; and VEURX, the Vanguard European Index Fund, which has done almost twice as well as VFINX so far this year)

Thanks for the additional suggestions. I'll look into them.

BTW, I was one of those people who did not buy DELL. I wanted to, but I just didn't believe it could keep going up! Well,as we all know, it did keep going up. (On the other hand, if I had bought it, it probably would have gone down instead.)
