Long term investors buy in anticipation of growth in the stock price - that is the purpose of investing. Traders gamble on spikes. I have owned this stock for over 18 months and anticipate owning it for several years to come. If you think investing to build capital is greedy or foolish then you are living in a country with an economic system that is not compatible with your ideas. You don't need to be posting on stock boards but rather on political ones.
