re: "I have been known to be outrageously optimistic on occasion and current period is one of those occasions..."
Pray do not take this the wrong way ( ...And, I suspect that there is very little chance that you will. ) ; however, when it comes to being "outrageously optimistic" as many of the "ELDERS" on this thread will probably eagerly give witness, you are an amateur next to me. Several years ago I proposed a GUB ( Greatest Upper Bound ) for the pre-split stock of $500 to $1,000 per share. I took a lot of abuse at that time from many of the skeptics that infested the predecessor to this thread.
I can still see a possible GUB for the stock of another factor of ten or so, if everything works out ( and all of the possible best cases probably will not ) so...my current GUB works out to $300 to $1,000 per share with a time horizon of three to six years from now.
SO, WHO IS THE OUTRAGEOUS OPTIMIST?
My most significant differences with you are the issues of time scale and potential high end targets.
I HAVE NEVER, IN OVER THIRTY YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN THESE MARKETS OF STOCKS, IDENTIFIED SUCH POTENTIAL AS I SUSPECT THAT AMD REPRESENTS !
My two greatest fears are:
1. That I will seek gratification prematurely and miss the "BIG MOVES".
2. That I will fail to realize, in time, that the situation at AMD has changed profoundly for the worst case and that I will sink financially with them.
You see events on a much shorter time scale than I do. I hope, if the best case scenarios do play out, that you are still around for them.
PATIENT and Elderly Regards,
DARBES
