No, not saying any such thing. Saying if the market RUNS I will just take advantage of it in a timely way. Each day counts right now with Qualcomm, and I don't want to miss it. I posted that briefing.com on fed meeting because of your mention of fed meeting in previous post. meant it to be encouraging-- I'm not a short term trader of stock. And I never sell stock on a top to reaccumulate on a dip--as we know, this market can't be predicted, besides, the tax penalty would be enough to make that a bad idea. But Qualcomm is on a tear right now and that's why I said I wish I was home all week. Last week was amazing, as you can see from all the posts on the Q thread. Next week would be a good week to be around. Jill

Jill, When Bruce sez, What's a long term investor to do who is concerned with accumulation wealth? Nothing. I agree completely. Leave your laptop at home. :) For what it's worth or not worth, by most any standard I'm too slow to make decisions. Gawd, I envy Lindy's talent at that. Yet, I've been a successful investor for ten years, also by most any standard. There is a lot of peace of mind to be had by recognizing there is a life time of investing ahead for you, that the decision you make next week most likely will not significantly affect your financial future so much so that it can't wait 'til next month or even next year. It's better to be sure of your decisions by taking the time to assess them than to be unsure of them because you rushed into them. --Mike Buckley
