That is one good thing to hear. Although I get a flustered when I am down 5 or 10%, you can be sure that when I bought it I imagined I could withold even a shakeout down to $3. Hanging in there on a day like today is harder than it looks--but at least the market in general was lousy. I have a wonderful story to tell about getting shook out. I've told it a handful of times and I am sure everybody is sick to death of it. Suffice to say, I gave up a lot of shares once at the precise low-- but I only sold half. And the half I kept of course then did something wonderful. If I had bought in three parts instead of two, today would not even have been an issue-- I'd have bought my last third and only be down 3 or 4% in the position. I love the thrill of a stock when the volume starts to perk up. Very happy I kept one trading account active for this. Unless of course glgc has a scandle tommorrow and the ceo resigns, ha!
