Robert, worse yet, I learned buy and hold too late:) In my previous yrs of investment, I also thought I could time the market by going long and short at different stage to max my return. The end result is I once lost big money by shorting DELL (yes, I shorted DELL:) in 1996. But what is worse about this trade is that I never touched DELL again-:( However, nothing could make me regret more on my AMZN position. I once owned 500 AMZN shares at 52 in 1997! Had I stayed long and ignored all those ups and downs, I would have 6000 shares of AMZN today after all these spilts! People were saying what if you stayed long in KTEL, let you tell you that I would not mind to own 10 different KTEL(s) if I could get back my AMZN:) Like I said, the profit and wealth could be beyond your imagination
