Glad to get confirmation that IBM is a good long term buy. I suppose if I were smarter or more nimble I could have bought my most recent purchase at even better prices. I'm trying to buys some LEAPS now at a limit below the current market so maybe I'll make up by reducing my average costs. Normally averaging down is not a good idea and I would rather be averaging up but I saw some blood running in the gutter and I know what that means. Another good indicator I've found is when the stock market hits the front page of the newspaper. It is usually the sign of a top or a bottom and a move in the opposite direction is coming up.
