I known where Don-Wys is coming from. Maybe it is just semantics.

The spec stock "speculative position" and normal stock "invested postion" both require being "invested." That investment could be money, time, happiness, misery, etc.

Don-Wys may have an opinion that is disagreeable to some. But, his insight, as a very long-time holder of this stock, gives a unique perspective that is appreciated by others.

He should be able to express his opinion here as long as he does not personally attack/insult anyone and continues to follow the six Algoracom Rules of Use.
