When I bought Softbank last April I believe it went down after my purchase. I just tried to put it away and not look all the time (not an easy task). This stock is far from a Softbank but we are all hoping that Mr. Son's touch will carry over into this stock, otherwise none of us would be here. I think that in buying this stock you are buying the management, just as you do when you buy a stock like Cisco or Microsoft. The Wall Street Journal had an excellent article yesterday on Mr. Son concerning his buying of Nippon Bank and his business acumen. You might feel better after reading it. Believe it was posted on the Softbank thread yesterday. Also you might want to periodically check the web site for The Financial Times, sometimes you can find good info there. If I come across anything I will pass it along. Regards, Debra

james, ur last reply showed class...many of us from the sftbf and pcclf crowd piled into this stock and we all knew it was going to be risky...cwahf will have their day soon...nobody could have predicted that that every single Yu clan member in HK was going to unload their shares all at once(perhaps we should have thought of that<gg>)...guess i would do the same if my stagnant textile stock skyrocketed 5 fold in a month...i think the bleeding will stop now...when they change their name officially and we here some positive news, the momentum will shift towards our side...with patience, i think we will all do well...i havent sold 1 share and i do not intend to for awhile. mact
