<o.t.>G'day all - happy holiday everyone. Henk, maybe this particular discussion has run its course [just a thought, there is no slight intended.] I mean, by now everyone who has participated in this particular thread [within this thread <G>] knows the situation. Maybe it is time to move on to something else. Normally, I don't want to butt in <g> between the direct communication of two individuals, but since I was really the culprit to making the parallel in the 1st place, somehow I feel I was responsible.

As I ve stated previously, if people feel there is a need to discuss this disparity issue, a new thread may not be a bad idea. In the mean time, may all my cyberfriends here have a wonderful season and a prosperous year to come

best, B

Henk, thanks for your discussion of holding companies and for 'thinking out loud' about various strategies to find value. No apologies necessary, IMO, regardless of outcome, or for wandering "Off Topic", whatever that means.
Personally, I think ANY attempt to find value in this market should be vigorously encouraged. Further, one of the best threads on SI was the old Qualcomm thread precisely because it welcomed a broad discussion of wireless communication issues--even if that meant getting a little silly at times--and the very notion of 'off topic' was ludicrous.
It's trashed now: 85% of the posts are about price action, volume, arcane chart patterns, while the other 15% consist of "Go Qualcomm" and other mindless cheerleading rants.
Thanks again, and best wishes for a happy holiday season. Mike Doyle
