Start reducing your holdings when everyone gets giddy over the prospects of these investments. You won't be sorry. A year from now these stocks won't be any higher that they are right now. Most will be lower.

Very well said. But investors, even individual investors, go through this over and over and over again --

First, they start going 'ga ga' about the stock during analyst upgrades. Any advice to sell (or even to reduce one's holdings) at this point is defeated by the "this time it's for real" argument.

Then when the stock price goes down, they bitch about the analysts for "talking the stock up". And things will be quiet for a while until the analysts come back with their upgrades...

Dipy.
