investor 2. bob said we'd never see these levels. i disagreed. pure and simplke. who was right? of course, i was. it was simple. i said it would, bob said it wouldn't. nobody mentioned blips here and there... however, this bow wow did pop. i can't know the future and neither can you. please. fundamentals didn't spark the pop as they have been continuously deteriorating. some fund manager with more dollars than sense did it (looks like an idiot if he/they didn't sell and if he/they did he/they just broke even. stupid trade. i can't take responsibility for others' short term ignorance ;-) btw, bob didn't ever say it was a sell in the mid $30s. also, who are all these people who bought in the $20s before and sold? do you know any? you act like everyone bought in the $20s and sold in the $30s? oh, and nobody bought in the $30s. ;-) oh, and nobody bought in the high $20s and is still holding, huh ;-) that's like me looking at msft and saying someone who bought in at the ipo is an goofus b/c he didn't sell at each perak and buy at each trough. extreme example, but fitting. anybody still holding - consistent with bob's advice, is feeling like they did the wrong thing.
