I think I bought it at $60/share and it went down to $3 after dot com bust, wiping out Roth IRA. Oh well, that was years ago in my 20's and I'm diversified so really just a lesson (not to buy tech stocks).


except tech has been the driver of growth since the last economic crisis.


Sure, but on average, everything is doing well since the last economic crises. There are dot-com tech stocks that never recovered. I'll only buy funds or dividend paying stocks, though mostly everything is in a 401k (which rode out the crashes quite well).
