nice sentiment, Diamond. But what about all those people that got killed (margin calls and forced sells in the market) in the war or maimed? I invested in QCOM only this last week and i am already down 30%. What about people that invested in the last 2 months at $100 to $200 per share? and got the stock sold out from under them. Ultimately if you go to war, you better make sure you have enough bullets to last you throughout the war (i.e NO MARGIN) which is the lesson i take from the meltdown. Not even a 'safe' amount of margin. Zero, nada, zilch. Then you can come out of this war unscathed and recount your experiences to your grandchildren.
