Harmon, where are you compared to the April 4 lows now ?
Are you still load and long?
You must be hitting new lows?
I hope you bounce back, I made so much holding YHOO with you, but I sold in 12/99, and never looked back.

Harmond, I disagree. Buy and hold is a myth and lie .
now being pushed by Wall St. (As they sell of whatever remains they have) It only works in hindsight

Buy and hold will destroy people when not in a bull market.

Am I correct in assuming your portfolio is lower than when you wrote that back in March? When will you sell? The NAZ will take out its lows of 1600 soon enough...

==============
PS: UGH, What stocks did you average down in? Why are you throwing good money after bad? Everyone now knows these stocks are a SCAM and lie...NO ONE is buying like they did 2 years ago...This has all been a way to make a few people rich. oh well, its a sad sad shame you threw all your YHOO profits away,,,i feel sick. human greed and stubbornness.

Yeah. I averaged down (boy DID I) in the past couple days. I'd like these prices to whip back to the mean like a stalk of bamboo!

The S&P is 8.5% higher than it was four years ago. Somehow I don't recall that folks in 97 were talking about how the market would be lucky to go sideways for the next 13 years, although there was talk about overvaluation.

The feds own model shows that at in early 1999, the S&P was not overvalued. Seems that rates are lower now, and inflation is lower. Don't even ask about money supply growth. Some bubble. The "bubble" seems to have been from 12/98 to 4/00. The nasdaq is 500-600 points lower than what fair value was in late 1998. The pe on the entire market is now at 16....with no inflation, low rates, and damn close to trough earnings. The pe on the S&P in 74 was 7, but rates were at 10, and trailing e were at a peak. It is my opinion that we are currently about 15% undervalued across the board and I can't find a time when the market was more than 30% undervalued according to the fed model.
