"I also hold but do not trade; great minds think alike:-)" Looking back on the past seven years (since the Tencor IPO), I have to admit that I wish I had done the same. It's too bad that companies in this sector don't offer employees some guidance on how to keep from getting panicked out by the volatility when they start handing out stock options and stock purchase plans. Not that I ever panicked out at the bottom, but I have tended to get nervous and take money off the table after the stocks have run up a lot. I have made good money, but I would have made even more using your approach.
