>>You're posting to people who aren't 'stock' investors. We're 'company' investors (for the most part). << jc, this is the same thing to a rational person. the only difference would be to a person who emotionalizes "company" more than stock. emotions and investing don't go together long term (though shorter term it one can do quite well). >>How many times would you have told me along the way to swap back into electric utilities?<< how many times did somebody tell a tulip investor to buy dandelions based on the relative value? i don't follow utilities so i can't comment on specifics. however, the above argument is flawed given the tulip / dandelion example. just b/c a price goes up doesn't mean it is rational. i really don't know enough about sun to speak to it specifically. i'm talking more in generalities. my view is certain that we are also in a technology bubble (not just internets). internets are the bubble on the bubble. i don't know whether greed motivates you or not. i do know that greed is motivating this market (generality) and i do know that 9/10 folks don't think they are greedy (generality). congrats on the big wins. be sure to keep them.
