Really? You mean you only invest on what a company has done and not their potential to grow? I guess you lost a lot on Enron, eh?
Personally, I like to BET, and, yes, I said bet as this is very speculative, on what a company might be able to do. The longer the odds, the greater the risk. The greater the risk, the greater the return. It is that simple. No, I don't have any verifiable facts that they pulled out any quantity of material. I only have a hunch and a few dollars.
