well i would say that being "long" is being an investor, which is what this board is all about. investing your money because you recognize the companies potential. a flipper is not an investor.
investor:
A person who purchases income-producing assets. An investor as opposed to a speculator usually considers safety of principal to be of primary importance. In addition, investors frequently purchase assets with the expectation of holding them for a longer period of time than speculators.
this is Investorshub, not flippershub.
