I played 1 share only 6 times between 48 and 55, ended few dollars loss due to comm charges. Also commented downtrend many times, but those bulls still shouting to the moon.

Good speculative stock..for the strong guts. Investment? Nah..it's when speculation goes wrong and you have no choice but to hold....and call yourself long term investor. Seriously, the market is rigged both up and down. The apes were special once but they refuse to get out of the cave. And guess what? They become archeological exhibits.
