I don't mean to be positive, but it has occurred to me that good news could be held for a good time to release it. I'm not suggesting that is what's happening, but it has occurred to me it could be a reason. I have taken a terrible beating on this equity, and many other small cap stocks lately. They are all down for me. My investing style is to put my money down for a minimum of 5 years in a new company. I don't really look for much before then and usually am not too disappointed. After 5 years I'll make some decisions about them. Until then I try not to fret much. There's so little I can do about it. Oh, I could sell, but then I wouldn't be sticking with my style. I suspect if I sold I would not buy anything again as I would be so disappointed in the poor performance lately. It's certainly easier to find what's wrong than to encourage myself to stay the distance, but I'm building character too. If I did my DD properly in the first place and the management hasn't changed and the product is still a good one I still have a chance of realizing a handsome reward for my patience.
