Dr. Dave, thanks for your observation and input. Maybe I'm too focused on short term to fully envision or appreciate what you have pointed out. I follow your insight as I zoomed out to a year, but in reality I'm not patient enough to wait so long for payback. I'm actually quite a rookie in investing, and so far I've settled into short term swing trades as my comfort zone. I'll keep an eye on that developing cup and handle however, and make a play if or when I think I am ready (meaning confident and patient).
Thanks again for your input.
