WIND is earning money and crushing the competition as well. That's just the point. Both MWAR and INTS are selling many multiples off their highs and WIND's earnings continue to grow at 45%. It wouldn't take much of a nest egg to fund a college education 18 years from now at that rate. Are they the next MSFT? In many ways, I hope not. In some ways, I hope so. I would not be proud to own MSFT but I would enjoy looking at my net worth. Maybe they will never be another MSFT. But this is a well-managed company that is dominating a portion of an explosive industry. Despite there being no bad news whatsoever, the stock has gone nowhere in almost two years, after a big breakout three years ago. Were they wrong three years ago or is it just a matter of time until the stock triples again? Can you really blame me for thinking that that is a distinct possiblility? I am willing to wait and see. It seems that there are windows of opportunity to make a decent profit now and again while generally staying long. It's hard to get beat up too bad if you buy at retrenchments and sell a little around the peaks.
