<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 7283491, member: 19463"]I disagree on this point. A certain number of 'investors' have to be actively trading or they don't consider themselves 'investors'. There may be money to be gained in 'day trading' but there are also people who play and lose. Some of these coins will resurface when the investment crowd starts going on cruises again. Come to think of it, maybe they will 'have to' sell low because their trophy wife tells them to??? Some roller coasters go up longer than others but rather few go into orbit. I may not live to see the plunge. I may. You? </p><p><br /></p><p>I see the word needed here as 'speculation'. 'Investments' go up or down for two reasons. The company may make a profit they share with stockholders or there are enough people betting not that the company will do well but that there will be a lot of demand for the stock in the future. Coins don't make a profit through hard work so the question remains whether there will continue to be people willing to buy for even higher prices. Time will tell.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
