Yeah, this would never be the case with a truly great company, would it? Randy (no position in any fuel cell companies) <<In this book, Cassidy discusses the issue which is near and dear to my heart...WHEN TO SELL A STOCK? In a section of his book, "Confronting Reality," he lists some danger signs which are indicative of a point at which a stock should be sold. Here they are: 1. Heavy promotion of the stock by management or agents; 2. Projections of unusually strong/lengthy growth; 3. Use of round numbers for projections (e.g. 50% growth or a $10 billion market); 4. Questioning the motives of reasonable doubters; 5. Strong claims to be the best, unique, in a business; 6. Defining the market narrowly so that, by definition, one is the leader. Heah - Ballard fans - Is there anything about this that sounds familiar?>>
