People ... let's get on with our lives. Tim sold all his stocks. For whatever reasons, they are his. He recommended and we bought. He sold and everyone panics and sells, causing the stocks to drop. If they are worth what we thought when we bought them, they will come back. Otherwise .... For those still holding, let's keep the faith. As I said before, Tim recommended some of these stocks before and sold them off - and the stocks dropped. They came back and then some and Tim bought back in. Tim has great instincts and research abilities and I, for one, followed his guidance. If I didn't make any money (because I was late to the thread and short of cash) I at least learned some things here. Or at least I hope I did. In the meantime, many of us lost money today but unless we sold, they are paper losses. And I regret to say they are not my only paper losses. I am getting killed in the drillers ... and Tim didn't suggest I buy any of these. So I guess I have no one to blame but me. This has been a great thread and for the most part, everyone here has been pretty honest and forthright (at least to these poor eyes) and I have enjoyed this thread more than any other on SI. I sincerely hope that Tim's personal life settles down and he puts things in proper perspective and returns. In the meantime, can't we carry on and stop bashing/praising Tim. Let's let him get his life in order. And Tim, I believe everyone here wishes you well and hopes you can overcome the sadness and duress you are now experiencing in your personal life.
