RE:Flipping sides and bag holdersFrankly I have to smirk at this latest thread.
About a week and and a half ago I posted some advice regarding things to think about when buying stocks.
The basic advice was to know before you buy why you are buying and have a clear plan as to when to sell.
As far as I am concerned it would appear to me that Obscure had already figured that out before he bought ENV and SU (the fact that he worked in the investment industry early in his work life perhaps explains this).....and this has nothing to do with the criticism of some of the people here who should be trying to learn as opposed to bashing. I have been investing since 1969 and worked as a succesful investment advisor for many years before I retired about 13 years ago and one of the most important lessons I learned over the years is to hear other people out because they might have thought of something that you haven't. Seems to me that some people here still have to learn that lesson.
Sadly, this Board which IMHO was one of the best on Stockhouse for its exchange of ideas in a respectful manner is now starting to look like many other useless SH Boards that I am reconsidering whether I should spend any more of my time here.
