Plan on never letting go. Lawsuit win or not....Co. seems to want to grow.
U R right, though, years. I had a lot of SF / IO a decade ago, in pretty deep, then the DTC locked it up the day or the day after I bought. Said the CEO took a $20k bribe. Locked up for @ eight years, went to near $0 on the greys. Came out of the lock a couple years ago, and I sold for what I thought I could get....something over a penny and a half it had climbed to, and about a 75% loss.
Had I held, two years later I would now be b/e.
Hard for me to sell anything anymore....so hard to know what the next fork in the road will lead to....and now when I come too a fork in the road, I want to take it.
