Jill: No offense is intended, but if an investor is going to use margin...he or she best know when to cut losses. That involves more than just buying and holding, it requires a timing strategy. Folks that bought Drugstore.Com and EToys.Com for long-term with the exception of a select few are re-thinking the concept I am sure. Both are down around 90 percent from their respective highs. Long-term buy and hold strategies can work well with the timely purchase of the right stocks. Investing has been, is now and always will be about timing....no matter what anyone says! Sorry, I did not mean to imply margin calls where limited to a particular group. Good trading...<g> Regards, LG
