Yea, I have some cash to buy, and some of the stocks I want to buy or add to are getting near levels I said I would buy them at....my problem is the stocks have tanked, but the averages have not, so I am kind of holding off and may look to lower my buy price targets...but it seems whenever I do that, I say I'll buy abcd at $25 and then at $25 I lower it to $20, and at $20, I lower it to $15....and then it never hits and a month later it is back above $30 and I missed out....LOL.....but this seems very odd...I have a pretty well diversified bunch of stocks from many, many sectors and it seems my stuff gets whacked hard when averages are not....I could understand it if I was heavy in one or 2 sectors or had just a few stocks, but sheez, I like to think I am well diversified and in quality companies in many, many sectors, yet I get whacked far more then the averages. Heck, naz is still above 1900...I was at my peak, high levels when we were at 1900 not long ago...now down like 20%, yet naz still sits above 1900 and dow above 9900........very odd considering the number and diversity of the stocks I have.....
