we have made an emotional improvement. today IS a good day. ;-)

there is something to be said for buy and hold, i agree. the only thing i would add is that the buys ought to be more at low valuations and - because you have to sell - sell more at high levels.

a quirk of human nature is that more people buy more stock at tops than at bottoms. this is EXACTLY the opposite of what should happen. well, maybe that quirk IS the definition of tops and bottoms ;-)

in the long run we are all dead.

good luck and, most of all - enjoy the journey!
