Sue... Hindsight is 20/20. Can't look back, doesn't pay. Last company that I bought deep into shares was stagnant for over a year and then took off like a rocket. Not saying CPQ will do the same, but eventually we'll all get our $$$ back +. I have never been a very nimble trader and usually lose when I start jumping around, so I'll wait. Thank goodness Summer has arrived and I can be outdoors most of the time. The watched pot never boils. El

Sueponine, You express my sentiments exactly. I was lucky enough to also purchase Dell pre-split so that eases this burden. I still have great expectations from this company, though sometimes wonder if I should have.
Still Long on CPQ, cks

There is noting wrong with CPQ that time won't take care of. I'm in at $38 / 10K. I had the same problem with GTW when I bought it post split at $45 per share. I averaged down and sold it at $58. I took the money and bought DELL at $91 (which might have been a mistake with 20/20 hindsight. Now it is a question of time to get CPQ to reach 40 (hopefully before the end of this year.

Best of luck to all.
