Sarmad, even greed must have its limits??
I know a guy that bought a stock @12. As it was going up and kept splitting and splitting he wouldn't sell it, because of greed, and Forrester's research. You see Forrester told him that by the year 2003, there would be a store on every corner.
What they didn't tell him was they had to make profits.
So they went into bankruptcy. All the original shareholders ended up with nada.
That was Southland Corp, the owners of 7/11's.
Ps
Now don't ever think I would ever compare the "Thing" to a 7/11.
