Kevin - "If you want to brag and gloat and cary on about Intel's stock performance, you can expect that people will point out that MOST RECENTLY that performance has been LACKLUSTER..."

It must be a difference in investment styles.

I've never been good at getting in at the bottom, or out at the top (like most posters on these boards seem to be).

I try to find some good , quality companies, make a prudent $$$ investment in them, and then leave them alone. If they go sideways for 18 months, so what? I'm planting oaks, and loathe to uproot them.

So in response to your pointing out INTC recent performance, the time frame is irrelevant. (Speaking of stock performance, not company execution, or lack of...)

How long do you hold a position? My goal would be to never sell.

Joe

Kevin - Re: "I wonder if Kevin considers MINUS 11% SPECTACULAR !"
Paul, if you and Joe go back and put my statement in context you'll notice I was talking about year to date performance, not performance over the last 365 days."

OH - OK !

Let's see - AMD was $28 on the first trading day of 1999 - so that makes a MINUS 23.8% for good ol' AMD .

You think a MINUS 23.8% return - EAR TO DATE - is SPECTACULAR, Kevie ?
