Don't mix smart investing with a bull market.

I have several thousand shares of RRRR at 5. I don't own any shares at a higher price.

I don't enjoy trading...so we have different styles.
I do trade however, and have found the old axiom to be true that if I had held my original stocks...I would be much better off.

Anyway, most of my stocks are in this for growth...not current income. But now we are discussing philosophical approaches to the market...and that could fill volumes at the bookstore.

My main point is...rudeness does not have to be a pre-requisite to shorting. I think you often demonstrate that.
And yes, I have learned to keep irrational exuberance on the long side in check!!

Aloha,
Mary
