I think your PM philosophy is essentially correct. I'm only about 65% invested, but thinking strongly of going the full monty (You can leave your hat on). The reason I think you're right is kind of weird. You're a college man. You ever study any Quantum Mechanics? I did. Really cool stuff. Relevance? Read on. Anyway, most people have heard about the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, that the position and momentum of a particle can only be known to a certain accuracy. The more you know about one, the less you know about the other. Turns out there is another "uncertainty pair", namely energy and time, and this has been on my mind. The obvious analogy to the stock market is that the bigger the move you're expecting, the less accurate you can estimate when it will come, and vice versa. Well, enough ramblings for a Sunday morning...... CD
