wragrep, I am not a believer in buy and hold. I would agree that if you bought LU 2 years ago at around $14 to $16 there is no danger to loose money. But all those who bought above $80 may loose money on LU over the next 3 to 5 years.

You still have treasuries who return risk free 3.4% above inflation. That is your benchmark.

Best example are disk drive manufacturers or chip manufacturers. You are rolling the dice on who will survive. Just see MOT, MU, WDC, TXN, LSI, COMS, HWP, and the list goes on. Even ASND chart is nothing to brag about depending were you bought ASND

Will not respond to any other post due to time constrains

Thank you.

Your response sounds like I wrote it. I am an ASND shareholder for the last 18 months. To take a ride like that and land safely into the arms of a company like LU is truly a dream come true!!! LU is a company you dont have to watch, just buy on the dips. Im so happy I could just $%#@! Im only 36 and with LU I could retire at 40 (but I wont). Good luck wragrep and KRA! GO LU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
