<<GBLX is an extremely frustrating stock and only for a LT investor>> ____________ I agree it's frustrating, because of the huge float and the boring trading range it gets stuck in, and I've been in and out of it for a few points gain (and occasionally a point or two loss). However, whenever I'm holding a telecom stock like GBLX or WCOM, I feel safer than when I'm holding any other tech-related stock. I have a certain confidence that I won't wake up tomorrow morning and learn that some competitor is threatening to overtake their niche or position in the market. Telecom stocks are a good solid place to be at this stage in history, in my opinion---even if they're frustrating. Companies the size of GBLX can't easily be surpassed by upstarts or small-time players who simply have a better idea. CSCO was once thought not to have much competition, but look at it now. I also like the fact that GBLX is heavy into the web-hosting biz. This is going to get bigger and bigger. .
