>>I added another 100 shares this am too. I don't know if you bought today or not. I just bought a market order and got wacked at 302. You would think I would learn...<<

Recognize that with a 100 share order, the investment firms may not have nibbled at your order if you tried to shave a few points. In the long run, you will be quite pleased with your investment, and what you perceive to be the extra couple of points you paid will probably be taken care of with dollar/yen flucuations in the next few days.

I am here for long term -- each purchase, I thought I was paying a lot (and it was), but am very pleased with performance and expect great performance over the next 3-5 years. At some point, Softbank will split and ADRs will be made available to U.S. investors. When that is announced and effected, Softbank will roar up another 25-30% and you'll be pleased with yesterday's purchase.

No guarantees, of course, and I'm sure that I'm not telling you anything that you don't already know.

Logan,
still feeling bad about being "wacked" for a couple of extra dollars on your market order? bet it didn't take long for you to forget the extra couple dollars that you might have paid. of course, you might have missed the month's $60 run if you tried to save a couple dollars and your order wasn't executed.

well, I'm just sitting here and holding for the long term. i've also put in market orders in the past purchases of softbank.

hold long term. :-)
