$40, $80 any price that would create a break-even scenario to a previous investment is faulty thinking.
The past is totally irrelevant. By all means aspire to regain lost capital but it doesn't have to be with the company that lost it.
To say I will never invest in SGH because it will never reach the lofty heights of $40/$80 is faulty thinking. What matters is, does the stock represent good value comparable to other investments today. One should never not invest due to a bad experience, the only reason not to invest is because one can't see any room for growth with decent margins.
I don't think SGH is a good investment currently not because of the past, just because the distribution of holders is heavily concentrated in a single area and that carries its own set of risks.
I have a few because I believe in the model, and as was always the case, the defensive nature of earnings - under normal circumstances of not over leveraging. More a curiosity to me than a solid risk/reward consideration. Every day is a new day and every day should give thought to anything has changed.
Good luck to you Ballyball. It seems you are not encumbered by the defeatist regret syndrome and it might just pay handsomely for you.
