Kona, I’ve had many exchanges with Cadillacdave on the NVDA board. He’s a solid citizen and does occasionally bring up valid points that don’t fit the positives that we, as longs, tend to feel somewhat uncomfortable with. It doesn’t always fit the positive narrative but is thought provoking. Some of us only see positives, others see a negative periodically. For example, losing over $220 million is not good. Others say raising money to offset that and grow is positive. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. In my opinion he’s not a basher but a realist. You’re not an out of control pumper, just an enthusiastic shareholder. My 2 cents

Kona, I actually do agree with you about getting in to an investment early, especially on a ground breaking technology.

There are also different strategies to building a position. I am not critical of how others choose to invest or trade with their funds.

Noticing the downtrend here, for me it was an easy decision. Sell my position and buy back in, acquiring nearly twice as many shares. No regrets about doing that at all.

You seem to be a proponent of the buy and hold strategy. That worked fine for me when I was in NVDA 2 years ago. When the momentum stopped, I bailed out.

Everyone has their own style and trading/investment goals and each investor has to do what they are comfortable with.

I enjoy the education, camaraderie and debate here on the board. But ultimately, we are all here to make $$, and must employ the strategy that works best for each of us.
