You need to watch Jim Cramer. Remember, when a $2 stock falls to $1 you've still lost half your money. And, there had to be some reason it was a $2 stock to start with ...

Yeah but if he only invested $50 then he only lost $25...whereas if it doubles, he just made $50

I just bought LNVGF Lenovo stock...at .70 who gives a shit right? I spent a whole $35 for 50 shares.
I was looking back at citigroup, last year before the crash it was a steady 45-50 for every year previous. Im sure it will come back, just might take a year.

With $7 transaction costs, LNVGF has to go up 40% just for you break even on the $7 buy & then $7 sell.

I know you're talkin' only 35 bux n all ... just sayin'

You can say that same thing at any per-share price level, not just when they're supposedly "low".

The per price share is almost meaningless ... it's the P/E (Price-to-Earnings) ratio that really matters.

There is only 1 thing manipulating growth and drastic buy volume, and that's the huge daytrading volume that C contributes, makes most long term investors wary. If you switch to lightspeed, you can get in on the cent ups and downs action, with scottrade, orders don't go through fast enough to capture cent ticks. Daytraders are making a killing on C as a whole with cent, even half cent fluctuations.

Im sure, but looking at C's value for the past few years, one would think it would get back up there eventually.

I can't buy LNVGF though sharebuilder:verymad: I'm waiting for my funds to go through for citi probably, unless something else catches my eye.
