I remember Bruce ramping up he NRs starting in September and saying "although you wouldn't know it from the share price we've had a busy summer (making deals)!" So hang in there if you believe in the company.
quote=PlantManager013]For those who have joined this crazy ride just recently, this is painful and scary. I feel for them, but this is the price to pay for great returns.
The ones who have been around for a year or more, this is shaping up to be just like last Summer, when Bruce was making deals and putting out great NRs and, in spite of that, the SP was in a coma.
What I have learned is that, just because a volcano is not erupting every day, or every week it does not mean it is dead. It's just dormant. And you can hear the rumblings once in a while. And watch out when it decides to go.
The only question I have is when will this happen - next week, in August, or in September? I am ok with all three scenarios - I just have to excercise more patience in the latter two scenarios.

Right before a stock split and Oct 17.
This is not fun. My average buy is just over 42. But I believe if I can persevere through these holy Hannah 3 percent drops day in and day out I will be there with the Sharks when they decide they can't squeeze the longs for any more.
This is painful. But hanging in there.
