Welcome Pam, Once you ride one of those downward technology stocks and survive by using options you will never panic again! In fact, it will make you a MUCH BETTER INVESTOR! Here are some facts that indicate that a long term investment strategy is very important.: These facts came from the CBOEs free seminars. 1. In the period 1949 through 1989, a Dean Witter study shows that $1,000 invested in the BEST 34 months produced a total return in excess of $100,000. $1,000 invested for the remaining 37+ years prduced returns of slightly over $5,000. 2. A University of Michigan study of the 30 year period from 1963 to 1993 shows that 95% of the markets gains came in only 90 days. The point to these facts is you never know when that "right time" is going to come. If you try to market time, most investors will lose the majority of the time. If you use a variety of tools to protect your downside and capitalize on your upside you will most likely remain in the market and "catch the big waves."
