Just saying.



Thanks for making my point. Which was - you didn't need to GAMBLE on the IPO's to have nice gains.... Johnson and Johnson (JNJ) and Apple (AAPL) and many other tried and true names did as well or better than some of the IPO's.

I've never said DON'T BUY -- my point is more about NEWBS being able to stomach some of the wild rides these TYPES of stocks take you on.
