Like marriage, cutting lost or divorce is already a lost cause.Market Unclehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13926458268187430049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28086856.post-35334744780506796382009-03-31T23:23:00.000+08:002009-03-31T23:23:00.000+08:00Well there are different definition for long term ...Well there are different definition for long term I guess.

Trading should be more analogous to like ONS or short fling.<BR/><BR/>The analogy only applies if one subscribe to the value investing philosophy.

You can't really talk about "til death do us apart" with stocks.<BR/><BR/>Buffett has some stocks that he deemed he will not sell no matter what some years back. But he still did. Of course for most of them, either he buys out the whole co. bytaking in private or he really didn't sell at all.Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03292158817395898619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28086856.post-10496653782254845522009-03-25T10:07:00.000+08:002009-03-25T10:07:00.000+08:00I dont agree that stocks are meant to be enduring ...I dont agree that stocks are meant to be enduring life-long affairs.
