I'm in kick myself mode. AA was at low 7-8-9 for a long time last year; now it's up to 17. The dividends were too low. Very short sighted.
That's going to be the story of my short life in the stock market, the ones that got away. And there are a lot now. WAG is another one I saw at high 40's and thought wait. Waited too long. Several more like that but not all. Some haven't done too well and those I fear may go belly up or just.
F pushed up to 17; now it's back at 15 where it's been for ages. Last year Forbes listed it as a good buy because there wasn't sufficient interest in its potential. So it goes.
You need to know that I have been a long-term, buy and hold investor for almost forty years. Back when I started out in the mid ‘70’s I did some short term trading, including some on margin.
Then one time I got a margin call. It didn’t take but once to realize that wasn’t for me, and that my strategy needed to change. “Get rich quick” was entirely too risky.
So any opinions I have will reflect that worldview.
