When people ask me about what to do with new money, I tell them to keep it in a money market fund. The investment fund I run is 30% long and 70% cash. I hold some gold stocks, some communications stocks, and a leftover position in this dog. The golds stocks will be sold eventually because that kind of play is always a trade much like hardware plays. The others are structural positions that I won't sell. That includes ODIS. I would like to build a sizable position in ODIS when, as, and if, they can convert all these deals into top line. On yeah, I never go short, use margin, buy derivatives. When you resort to any of those, you lose. Sooner or later. It's a sure thing. People should buy their own stocks and hold. It's ok to sell because there's always a prettier girl who just moved into the neighborhood. It isn't ok to sell a stock that is advancing to chase the whores.
