Short term traders hardly understand long term investors. I wouldn't mind what you said to me about foolishly keeping my positions on this stock. That's what a long term investor used to do. I trade many stocks, but never this one. This is one of the best company I ever had.

You certainly DO NOT GET IT! I think he gets it. He's still up smartly on his L/T position. Perhaps you should be a little more critical about yourself and your poor timing to buy this stock? Are you still holding your position from the mid 30s? When you showed up here you were asking for opinions. Freedman did not respond to you. Instead you got a reply from carlson stating in his opinion "the bottom was in" You eagerly agreed and bought stock in CheckPoint. Now that your investment has gone sour you are venting your frustrations on someone who has also given his opinion. At most he is guilty of poor judgment. That is not a crime Why don't you look up carlson and yell at him for telling you he thought the 20s would hold. I don't know what price Freedman owns stock here, but I will bet you dollars to doughnuts it's under $5 and probably closer to $2. BTW are you still holding your ORCL with a PE comparable to CHKP. How about your AMAT? Now that's an impressive PE<BFG>
