Dale Baker, yes I forgot about my entry price in MAXF. Bought and sold and bought sold around the position as stock moved up, and am still holding my small core. I just did not realize how good they could be or become or else I would've bought, bought, and bought -g-. The stock still looks reasonably undervalued to me now if the company can maintain margins. I will bet they can. regarding HLSH. I'm holding on to a losing position. Didn't chance adding when stock was near death. Should have, apparently, because it's turned out to be a good bet for those that went in. At least up to this point. I have had many companies go belly up on me in the past couple of years, so it's become difficult to commit more funds to such stocks when they are so very close to filing for bankruptcy. In past, that has been tossing good money after bad for me. But we do see a few now that are able to retreat from the abyss. Reminds me how I did not buy AMR when it became obvious the airline would not go into bankruptcy when unions (flight attendants) ratified labor agreement. That quick ride would've, could've been from maybe $3-4 to $13. Perhaps in not buying these on-the-brink companies now, I am like the generals who fight current battles with strategies/tactics of the previous war. That just does not work.
