Dave,
Look at the short term perspective that exists with most of the guys here. Try telling someon who invested at a peak and then watched his investmen shrink by 20 to 40% that his investment is going "straight up". I would agree that since the end of June AMKR has gone straight up. With AIM I am betting that at some point in the future it will have a dip or two to allow me to use the cash I am accumulating now. I have a sell signal now, but I am going to do my transactions on the 15th of Sep.
On a short term basis, right now I am sitting on 430 shares that only cost me $1685 ($3.92 per share). That is what I main when I say AIM manages risk. I originally purchased AMKR at 7 13/16. That is roughly twice what I have at risk. If AMKR should close at $20 on the 15th AIM will direct me to sell $1085 worth of stock (54 shares). At that point I will have 375 share that will only have cost me $600 as a result of the cash that has been transferred to Cash Reserve. That will bring my net cost down to $1.75 per share on a stock that is valued by Mr. Market at $20.
