However, if you've been investing in this arena only for about six months,..... you need more time to have a valid measurement of portfolio performance. I have been in with most my money for 6 months. I am not disagreeing with you. But would like to mention that I have nothing to whine about. I waited and bought on Oct. 19th. Since that time, the NAS is up 19%. I am up 34%. I also sold for long term spending money in Feb...If I include that as not a loss...I am now up 55%. I surely have nothing to whine about. I must confess however, that when the words "March" and "Sell" are mentioned that I feel like Pavlov's Dog. I am worth less than half of what I was in March. If I did sell, I could now buy in and hold double the amount of shares in the same companies I still love. I did time the market on getting in...I was hoping for a crash in the third week in Oct...It didn't happen, but was the starting line for the latest run up. I also knew that these recent run ups have been peaking about Feb-March... I'll quit now as I feel too much like Pavlov's Dog... Ron
