here's a summary... siliconinvestor.com i'd also add that buying in 1/3 increments further reduces risk. keep in mind that even if the market went to $0 in a year, you'd only lose about 5% b/c you money market dough would earn aabout 5-6%. >>you just don't want to over pay for the company.<< kirk, it blew my mind that this simple truth was pissed on so badly by the perma-bulls. investing is all about alternatives. when i mentioned that csco the company (not necessarily the stock) didn't have a chance to outperform a t-bill over the next 20-30 years (before even i knew they would crumble the way they did!) people thought i was speaking french. btw, be sure to price in intc's new competition by amd. amd is trouncing intel on the margin due to intc's extremely bad call to support rmbs. that decision will cost them heavily even though they re running from it full speed right now.
