Catching a falling knife?  It sure looks and feels that way, but the zero-commission trading for a month helps numb the pain.  I don't know what to say that I haven't already in my previous trade notes.   I'm going to keep buying on dips.  Because of the zero-commission trading for a month, I'm going to purchase smaller quantities more often rather than buy large chunks of shares with less frequency (glad I have some cash in my account to burn).

I'm actually starting to get  somewhat close to the total number of SBUX shares I want to have in my portfolio.  I have several more months before I accomplish this after which it will be time to shop for new company to build a long position in.

When did you develop an interest in SBUX?

I developed an interest in the fall of 2006 ( before I opened my TK account ).  Started trading them on and off in the fall/winter of 2006 and spring of 2007.  I didn't start building my current position till November 2007.

Is the zero-trading for the month of March or April?

It's for March.    I talked to Mike today and he said it's going to change the comissions to $0.00 later today.   For any trades made yesterday or up until the point he makes the change,  he said he'll remove the commission.
