    Considering your intellectual status, that is saying something. When you ascend to "peanut brain", I will consider contemplating the validity of one of your posts. No doubt that point is a very, very long way away.

    If you had a thousandth of the intellectual skill you think you have, why not jump into the Man Made Global Warming thread. PamFam is in dire need of some help. I like his contributions to this forum, but he is struggling mightily on that one. On second thought, you have shown you will only degrade that topic like every other one you participate in. Carry on with this one. Nobody cares.

    Buy him for what he is worth, sell him for what he thinks he is worth.  Instant riches

  2. They never consider that the profits made may contribute materially to a future virus or cancer solution.  I can still remember how all of those "obscene profits made by the oil companies" were demonized.  Yet when British Petroleum and Exxon had their big spill issues, they were able to cover most of their liabilities rather than needing some government program ( funded by you and me).  And if they hadnt made those "obscene profits" I wonder how many of their employees would already be gone due to the current oil issues?

    You think he's OK to hold a little while then? 

    No way for me to answer that.  If "everyone" is "waiting" for the "right time" next week, what's to stop a few of them thinking " I'd rather be safe than sorry" and decided to sell a little early?   A few early sales can put downward pressure on stock price and momentum can quickly build in the other direction.  I learned about 35 years ago that it is virtually impossible to time the market.   However, I do know that there is nothing wrong with taking a profit.   Again, another alternative would be to sell part now and part later which is sort of a hedge for it moving up or down more quickly than one expects.
