I get it, at this point there are a lot of longs that are at a loss. To answer your comment, nothing "predicts" stock movement any better then the weather man "predicts" the weather, its all odds with a few dozen unknown variables. Warren Buffet, the greatest investor in history also states that portfolio diversification is foolish and indicates that one should buy a great company at a great price and hold it forever. I just so happen to think this is a great price to buy into this great company. IMO the next business cycle, that is beginning right now, will be great for $MMM. $MMM long and strong! Good luck to you!
