Vendit, I also have been talking to some people locally who are on the fence now with a fist full of dollars just waiting. For what I have no idea. This is the paralysis of those who think that they need to get a bargain (gotta be smart). I tell them (just once!), "What does it matter if you get a dollar or two higher than the low price, if the stock price goes up $40?" I've missed more money on the upside by not buying when I could have than by buying at too high a price. I bought AOL when in was $104 and it dropped almost immediately into the 80s. I held it, it split twice and I'm in at $26. Do I regret not getting a lower price? Yes, but I'd really regret not having bought it at all. -musea
