<<. When you say that you shouldn't look at a company beyond the 1-2 year horizon, I immediately think trader, not investor. >>

I don't believe I said that. (i hope i didn't say that.) I said I believe trying to predict earnigs or revs out 3-5 yrs is futile. That doesn't mean that a stock is not a worthy long term holding.

I've held plenty of stocks for more than 2 yrs.

<<I don't think there is anything wrong with being a trader, although I think it is more like gambling. >>

yup, it is much like gambling.
