MrBayAreaHokie • 04/09/25 02:03 PM ET
Because timing the market is hard
Beerman • 04/09/25 01:42 PM ET
hard but not impossible
MrBayAreaHokie • 04/09/25 02:11 PM ET
How many hedge funds actually beat the market? **
BB Hokie • 04/09/25 07:06 PM ET

GOHOKEE • 04/09/25 12:14 PM ET
And if you followed this, you at this very moment made a boat load of money
GOHOKEE • 04/09/25 01:29 PM ET
And employment at both will take a hit....**

UEMcGill • 04/09/25 01:31 PM ET
350 employees in each store on avg. plus distribution and corporate**
Hokebury • 04/09/25 02:43 PM ET

The stock hits might not show up for a quarter.
HokieAl • 04/09/25 11:29 AM ET
No, they'll just charge more

I think there are laws about that
MrBayAreaHokie • 04/09/25 11:52 PM ET
Yep. I tried to start a FBA mail order bride business and it was a disaster
