It sounds like you want to pick a fight, and I am unclear why I have to participate..

Eugene - I'm not trying to pick a fight. All I am doing is asking you about risk. I would guess that a lot of lurkers read this and other threads to get impressions of what is happening in the market. I'm trying to balance out the discussion here in an effort to try to paint a more realistic picture of what is happening for the benefit of those who might be reading. I don't believe the market is going to make a strong move up any time soon. You've made a purchase today that from your initial declaration, it appeared as though you felt the purchase entailed little risk (you didn't mention any). You've now given a greater explanation of your purchase and have discussed some of the risks - and I thank you for it.

SI is all about discussion and debate. In a forum like this, I believe better decisions can result by people challenging each other. If we all agree with each other, then we could all be agreeing on something that is wrong.

If I come off as being hostile, I apologize. If at any time you don't wish to discuss or debate an issue with me - let me know, and I'll drop it.

Thanks,
-Eric
