For all those who have read the last posts. Please, take the time to do your homework, never stay with just one opinion. There are many books about investing that cover the basic but I can recall one in particular called "Fundamentals of Investing" by Gitman, Joehnk and Smart, in which they explain the issue of these replies in chapter 1. (Carlos55, maybe you should read that intro book too!) Colorado1 said in his message ( http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=37679665 ) that he looked through about this issue and found the answer. (In other words, he did his homework)
It is a shame that Carlos55 has to insult people when he is not able to support an idea. I really hope Carlos55 read a little bit more. Insults don't offend me but they said a lot about who is telling them and most people would really doubt that anything intelligent can come out of anyone with such behavior.
