OT OT OT... Mikey, re:[holy moley, are they related?]
Indeed. I believe I have read that Jimmy is a distant cousin or something. Strangely, I see a lot of similarities in their personalities and outlook on life. If you're gonna have two hero's, I can't think of better ones.
Re: I own a few stocks that have actually appreciated in price...
When I compare my emotional reaction to those issues with our Mighty Q... I must report a certain giddiness.
I can think of one that reported yesterday that we both own, but unlike you, I get this sick "now I can't buy any more" feeling as it climbs into the stratosphere. Paraphrasing Buffett again (W not J), good ideas are hard to come by, and big, fat, pitches right down the middle don't grow on trees.[holy mixed metaphors, did I actually write that?] As Gregg P. would likely confirm, the problem with this market is the dearth of available targets for the new money that keeps flowing in. So let some dumb analyst that doesn't understand QCOM badmouth it for now. I'll take some more shares off his hands even if Q is already by far my largest holding (both personally and professionally).
Fair winds,
