Optmaster et al,

Re: I'm a bit baffled by some of the posts recently. Isn't anyone here in this for the long haul? Personally, I plan on holding my BRCM for the next 3-5 yrs.

That's what you say now....but let's pretend that BRCM spikes up today to 200 and plateaus for a bit....I bet you'd be a seller then, realizing that you could probably buy it back later in the day on a drop.

I bought BRCM at 115 and rode it up to 175 the next two weeks where I sold. Didn't like seeing it go up further to 185ish but happy when it dropped back to 120. A bit slow in buying, but back in at 148.

Many people say they are long term investors, but usually events happen that change our perspective.

Happy Investing....

Gary
