Bob, another example was SAH a couple years ago that went for a 50% dip and I was happy to see it get back to my buy price and very shortly it had doubled (right after I got out). Seems like stocks often go to extreme drops before they make a serious run. SFP came from 36 to 25, PLMD dropped from 30s to 16 are and I bought and rode it to low 20s (shouldn't have sold). Point being that good stocks seem to get taken down by manipulation and many holders panic and sell and then one day it bounces and takes off and back they come. As many years as I have followed THQI (first owned at $4 and sold at $7 and came in later again) it can be an explosive stock about the time you give up on it. Personally I like strong fundamentals and then apply TA for timing, but overall my average hold is 2-4 months. SFP I have held from $13 (Nov 98) in spite of the roller coaster ride. Bruce
