Epicenter, your point is well taken, too; in terms of holding long works better than frequent trading. I have a "buy and hold" retirement account, and this one is up a couple of hundred percent while my active trading account is doing just a little better than the bank interest. Churning stocks sure made my broker rich though.<g> But unlike you, I like trading. So either I'll get better at this short term trading or get wiped out and go back to buy and hold. So you are one of those Cal Tech 'nerds',huh? <g> I live only 10 minutes from that school. I envy those Cal Tech students... I've heard they have more professors than students at Cal Tech <G>. Back to business: Can you convince me why ABOV is still a good investment at 120? (Because it is still cheaper than YHOO? <g>)
