Yup,yup, yup. You name it goes up a lot,it gets killed, cpq,aol,yhoo,dell,rmbs,brcm,vrts.
I've been worried about jdsu and glw and even glw took a bad hit but its still good (for me).
A core holding? Thats the one stock left worth more than you paid for it.
I gave up on LT holdings (except the big D)) and will now sell anything that gets higher than I paid -sometimes when only $2 profit.
Yet I keep many leaps and have about 25% in those.Try
to roll them up and out after selling.
I still think about holding LT, which puts me into csco,nt,txn,intc,orcl, (name brands) which seem to do better for me in trading than ones I don't know so well.
My LT goal (year or so) is to hold the Dell. ST goal
(daily) is to buy calls or stocks and hold for one day or a week looking for around $4/sh or up profit.
It is said that one cannot time the market and win. I
disagree because its what we do, in one manner or another,else may as well buy a fund.
So your inner clock says its time for break? No
problem.
Regards. (sorry for any repetitious statements)
