ElM, yes that would have been better. But that would have been trivial compared with what I could have done by simply selling at the top and buying at the bottom Qualcomm, J P Morgan, Lehman Brothers, silver, Apple, Google and John Deere each time they rang the bell for the top and bottom. Unfortunately, they don't actually ring a bell. The bell they ring is just to say when the market is opening: nasdaq.com That example of Yahoo! is empowering for an excellent gender, but not for shareholders who gradually learn at great expense that women are not good at running companies. My theory is that it's because unlike men, they are not killer instinct competitive, nor instinctively attuned to operating in big gangs to take on neighbouring tribes. They also mature 3 years earlier which gives their brains less development time than men get. Development time is a crucial aspect of human growth. Rabbits and rats can become adults in months rather than decades, but the intellectual horsepower they bring to bear on life's problems is small. Women don't start great companies and even taking over an existing one and keeping it going is beyond them. It's beyond most men too. Once the founders and builders of great companies pass them on, the companies start to meander. After 100 years there are few left. Even 50 years is getting old. Mqurice
