You shouldn't get angry with the market, and you shouldn't use margin. I agree! I recall that a "cool post" last week thought NT's problems were temporary! I wish SI would keep a public archive of "Cool Posts" so that we could revisit and review what the authors said. I've held stocks for years without trading. Sun and AMAT are examples. In the past, I have been sorry when I sold stocks like Texas Instruments because my timing was lousy. You should also consider the capital gains issue if you have not already done so. I don't have any plans to sell CSCO. Mephisto

Jubak's an idiot. He changes his mind as often as a little kid in a candy store. If you see a company with consistently good execution aiming at a nearly irreversable trend (bandwidth and infrastructure), you're always going to do better by just staying the course. Do people really think that internet growth will slow down in the next twenty years? Every time a bottleneck is relieved, some trend will cause it to strain again. Digital camcorders, digital phones, streaming content going everywhere- who is better positioned than Cisco to capitalize on this all around this wide globe of ours. Cheers!
