Paula – Thanks for the long-term JPM chart yesterday. That stock has to be a core component of any portfolio. You can see the volatility over time where if you were smart you could pick your buy points but the long-term up trend stays in place. If you look at the past five years KBE is really sideways to down. Even with BAC you would have made nothing in five years – just breakeven. KBE has never cleared its’ 2007 high unlike JPM which sits 3x its’ 2007 high. My question is how can JPM chart its’ own course independent of the sector for so long?

Larry, I don’t know the answer to your question. I think some would say JPM is superior quality. I am not interested in any other US financial. If you look at long term C chart, for example, it has still never recovered from the GFC. They did a reverse stock split so that the stock is no longer trading ~ $5 so it “looks” better and might fool people who did not look at the long term.
