Hi Bruce. You say >>"I was also just reading comments from one of the authors of "The Gorilla Game" concerning trading vs. long term investing in some of these networking stocks. Talk about contrasting messages from what the book talked about in regards to investing in high technology and what Paul Johnson said this week in San Francisco. It's been one heck of a learning experience since autumn of 1998 to date. Hopefully, I can digest all of the experience and combine it with some new knowledge to use in the future and come out on the side of 'having learned'.<< Would you mind sharing the url for Johnson's remarks? I would certainly like to read them. As to digestion-- so that's what the problem has been! -- having trouble "digesting" all the experience I am getting :)

you can do both. specially someone like you who likes to follow the market day by day. long term investing is very boring, and in periods like these, also extremely frustrating besides unprofitable. investing -specially in technology- doesn't mean never taking profits either. take Ariba for example, we all agree it's a fine company, but come on, $ 40 billion market cap at the top? take the money and run! ___ <<I was also just reading comments from one of the authors of "The Gorilla Game" concerning trading vs. long term investing>>
