Dear Sig. Long before some of the "Sea-Lawyers" on this thread ( I refer to those who try the convice the others to short! gg) were born, I started investing my hard earned money in the blue chips. I have never shorted a stock in my life, and I always won at the end. I come from a bond mentality. Our Swiss AAA bonds give barely 3% a year, and Eurpean sovergne bonds in USD, give max. 7% per year. Your TB's are no better. Now I know by sitting my stocks long enough, I can get 300% in 10 years, and somthimes mych better. Look at CPQ in early 1990's, when went from over 100 to mid 20's! I bought more, and the stock went back up to 100 and byond and made three splits in between. I live through the same thing with IBM, and two years of inactivity with INTC. It is question of patience. Having said that, I retain the write to bitch and comaplain, when I see they don't meet their target. This doesn't mean I short.
