Trying to buy at the absolute low, hang on for a higher high - all fine if you are married to a stock. "" Hello rudedog, you and I in the past severl years have discussed this investment policy many times, and we see eye to eye! When I sold SUNW at 117 to 118 about a months ago, this is what JC posted: """To: Yaacov who wrote (37460) From: JC Jaros Sunday, November 5, 2000 3:01 PM ET Reply # of 37624 Yaacov- Maybe it's the sulphur they put on the grapes. Anytime you have money in an equity, you're 'depriving yourself of cash'. Conversely, when you have cash, you're depriving yourself of equity. --- I, and others here are up like x20 with SUNW over 4 years. If we would have not rigidly 'stuck to dogma' and sold every 10-30% and tried timing back in on dips, we would be nowhere *near those gains. ---"" I guess, JC beleives there is more than one way to skin a cat!

Every time I have tried to diversify, I have ended up regretting it, because the things into which I diversified got slammed worse than SUNW. Show me another company Sun's size growing at 40-50% per year and selling at as low a PE and I'll buy some. JMHO. Charles Tutt (TM)
