But that must surely be the definition of opportunity, seeing value in underpriced shares, and getting some, or some more? If you value a market and its shares by the share price that the market affords it, then you will miss any opportunity to get some, or get rid of some, when the time seems right to do so.
I think that your generalism on this was the undoing of your argument. As far as OCA is concerned, imho it would be wise to ask oneself whether now or around now is a good value investment, be it to get some, or accumulate a few more. I'm in the later having gone overweight OCA. It's cheap, cheap as, and in a year or two from now I expect to be proven right, by the market who right now are mis-pricing OCA, to our advantage.
Carpe Diem.
