I suggested once to make it illegal to post ANAL comments. Too much garbage is uttered from them for pure manipulation. They play on human psychology and herd mentality.

<<There is no investor anymore, there are only traders. People buy in the morning, then sell in the afternoon. What happens to real investing ? >> Hey guy, I know what you mean...heck, I make it point to hold for at least 2-3 days!<G>...seriously, it makes sense to have a long-term view and have a diversified portfolio(SUNW is part of mine)...as long as I buy into a company's business model and it is executing it, I don't worry about short term gyrations...occasionally, the gyrations even present some good buying opportunities! Best of luck! Cheers, Wade
