price perspective, page-123

Motorcycleman ..I value your comments ...I will add one more of mine...many solid upward trends go on for many years..with the odd twice the standard deviation correction which very quickly bounces back ...you may ask ..how much is that..well you will note as time goes by the secondary trend ie the distance between the tram tracks gets tighter so a major correction or shake out is still two standard deviations but much less ..perhaps only 10%..
Just the normal shake out that occurs and very quickly returns to the upward trend.
What does this mean...Well don't be in a hurry to take profits just because you've made a great return..don't take profits based on emotion...hold the course..
A successful company with rising revenue will generate more and more profits and higher and higher prices...To leave you must have a good fundamental reason..in many cases many companies are bought out by stronger and larger companies to add to their growth..and this may lead to yet higher prices ...a veritable Cornucopia .
As the years go by ....better to keep milking a good cow...than to sell it!!!
