I'm way underwater on it too, but have collected dividends on it for 3 or 4 quarters, so it's somewhat mitigated.

Right now I'm faced with a bit of a tough choice. I could get rid of [t]GE[/t] and [t]JPM[/t] for profits representing a few years of the dividends I bought them for.

But I'm leaning toward hanging onto those profits and just letting dividends increase them while (hopefully) the share prices continue to improve.

At least right now the fact that I went pretty deeply into margin in the trading account isn't adding too much to my anxiety.

[t]ACAS[/t] is a tough one to get a read on. That market keeps vacillating between liking it and hating it. It never has loved it. But if the dividend stays intact, I don't much care what the market thinks of it.
