Thanks Albert!

I figured many on here now might be actually capable of understanding some of this investing stuff on a little higher level. I think everyone on here now gets the basics --- and maybe now that I have a little longer to live --- I'll start sprinkling in a little more of "this kind of thinking" stuff now.

You guys want to see how WRONG (if picking UPS could be considered "wrong") versus RIGHT (getting lucky and getting it spot on).....

Pull up a Google Finance chart of FEDEX (FDX) and overlay United Parcel Service (UPS) and go "ALL"....

Nuff said --- I'll let you guys take the look!

Winning vs more winning! I'd imagine if a guy was well diversified and had both of these, over the years/months he could ease out of one and stack the other. (FedEx)

Many times I own VZ and T -- or MO and PM -- or CVX and XOM etc....... F and GM.... because it's so hard to always pick the exact winner --- and most of these kinds of names are winners long term --- it's a matter of how much of a winner vs the other one.
