It dropped 50% within 3 months of my initial investment. I have consistently continued to purchase (dollar cost averaging) a fixed dollar amount each month since my initial investment. There have obviously been some lows but the highs have been amazing especially the last few years (51% so far in 2007). Dollar Cost Averaging is the way to go long term. For individual stock investing look for the tools that Investor's Business Daily (IBD) offers. Good Luck. I bet my IRA (now Roth) in 1992 on a Latin America Mutual Fund.
