Great post, Humble One, and a sound investment strategy.
I made a similar point on the G&K thread earlier today,
in support of a Silverback strategy:

If a Gorilla gamer purchased $10,000 of each of the
Silverbacks the day after G&K started and held them through
the close of the market yesterday, they'd have realized the
following spectacular returns:

2/15/99 COST 2/7/00 VALUE RETURN
CSCO 10,000 25,274 153%
MSFT 10,000 13,648 36%
INTC 10,000 17,109 71%

TOTAL 30,000 56,031 87%


There's no mystery to getting excellent returns; just pick
a few sure things and hang on. Oh, and make sure Cisco is
one of them <gg>!!!

uf

*OT* Carl...no fair..you didn't state that you were underweighted in Msft, and overweighted in Cisco, Intel....<G>

Regardless, congrats to you! Great story! Today should make you (and I, for that matter) very happy indeed!

Maybe a song will have to be written going something like:
"How high the portfolio Mama?"
Answer:"36.9% and rising!"

How sweet it is. Next 5 years is a no brainer...humble eCarl
