This reminds me (again) of after windfall last fall / winter.

Those who bought at $1.07 (top) were mighty worried as she slipped from there to .85, then .75 then, months later... all the way down to .29 (but that was a freaky flash buy - somebody made a mistake, I think the realistic low was .39)

The point being that, if you saw the potential in windfall, the loss of share value got your heart going because you couldn't believe your good luck to buy more at cheaper and cheaper prices.

Some may call this delusional thinking, but if, as was said, your dd told you this was a good value at $4.75, I think unbalanced thinking would be to second oneself at this point. Better to plot and scheme as to how to free up some more pennies and take advantage of the 25% discount! But what if it goes down more and I could have gotten a bigger discount? That crosses my mind too, but I think that is greed. So I buy more when I see opportunity and I have the funds.

This doesn't mean I just hang onto all stocks. One of a few I recently left behind was LRG. At one time it looked like it had real potential, but as time went on, more bad news was delivered, nothing was going right. I'm out of that stock based on the news, not the price! If the news was coming in really good... and the price was dropping, you can bet I'd still own it and be buying!

I'm NOT kidding you!

cheers,
