>I assure you that I lost more than my lunch look at altr's long-term chart. peaks and valleys everywhere, see? you know what they say about "if you can't take the heat stay out of the kitchen." as a rule, investors are risk-averse; a security will sell for a significant discount to its "discounted intrinsic value" if the path from here to the realization of the value is a jagged one. hang tight and you will be rewarded. this one has tanked 50% or more in the past. have no fear and stock up on leaps if you've got the money. put your money in t-bills if you can't wait five years for a 10-bagger.
