Pre-split I bought 500 shares (doubling my position) at $160. Tried to get it at mid-$140s the day before but bureaucratic mess up on my part delayed the purchase. When it went back to $120 (this is before the 2Q earnings report) I was upset. Now that I missed between 15 to 25 points seems like small change. It has also bought me peace of mind re: trying to "time" the market. The lesson I learned is to buy quality and let nature take its course. The Q is Quality with a major capital Q.
