Well you know, its pretty tough to pick bottoms and tops. There are a few people around here playing the options markets and doing well on ups and downs, but you have to have the guts to risk it. I just don't feel comfortable going up against these people. I feel way more comfortable holding as long as it looks like Apple will continue to grow. Market share doesn't matter to me much. P/E matters a lot to me, not so much to other traders. I'm doing just fine with Apple. Looking into other investments, but you know you have to balance risk/reward and for me stocks are *always* pretty risky. Most of my money is in other investments. I don't like that idea of diversification of paper, prefer diversification more like real estate, collectibles etc. I have to know what I'm buying.
