Chip: Sometimes I feel like that too. The truth is that this drop from $34 has allowed me to own just shy of 5 times what I owned from before the big spike, with an average cost of about the same price ($18 or so). Assuming this roller coaster ride ends where I expect it to I'll be looking back on this time with a smile. On the other hand I did panic and sell at $28. Then bought back twice as many shares the next day for... $28. One of those rare instances where your gut instinct tells you something useful. I can't help calculating how many more shares I would own if I'd stayed out and sat the whole thing out 'til now. Still learning, Simon
