stockroach, <Creative had a record quarter> That depends on what you are talking about. Creative had record revenues which were about $15m short of what they had projected just 3 months earlier. Creative did NOT have record EARNINGS. In fact, even with their large investment gains, earnings were significantly below last years same quarter results. I still have 1/3 of my original position and added recently at 17 7/16...but IMO this stock has been a dog during the biggest tech bull run in history (i.e. the last 3 years). I also think the uptrend is likely to continue but I am still concerned with the lack of revenue growth (which is projected to be down this quarter vs. last year) and the lack of earnings growth. Hopefully, despite weak revenues, earnings this quarter will show their first YTY growth in a long long time. <This year you could have bought in at 8 and is now at 25.> Investing in hindsight is very easy. If you want to play the 52 week low vs. 52 week high game in retrospect....I can show you 100's of stocks that significantly outperformed CREAF during this same run. Good luck to all, FF
