I have posted this before, (especially when Tito was exhuberant) but as one who has invested for over 40 yrs, I learned that I was correct 50 % when I tried to time the market. Who could predict that Clinton would be caught with his pants down? My broker was correct all the time. I have held AMAT (along with others) for several years now and have profited handsomely. Look at the 5 yr graph. Also, give away 1% for buy-sell commissions and it will be over $1500 per month in lost income after 40 yrs. Not counting the taxes lost. Sell when you have a compelling reason or alternative. e.g., taking a damn good vacation and improving life! fred
