<< After all, it didn't matter that I thought prices were insane in the latter half of the 90's, if I'd bailed any earlier then I wouldn't be able to enjoy all this free time to post to SI. >>

LOL! .. and same here actually.
It seemed like forever there that I was aphrensive to buy much of anything. The pumped up mo mo stocks were't worth the prices, and the true value stocks were being ignored.

But occasionally there were solid, non-tech ipo's that were initially ignored but then did very well after the first month or so of trading.

<<However, sentiment is based, in the end, on substance. We hope. Or at least the rational part of me wishes were true. >>

yup.

<<Sooner or later the chickens come home to roost. >>

there's been a lot of roosting the last few years.

<<So if I were to say "when it comes to the end result, management's use of capital is germane but not a sole determinant" would you agree? >>
