LOL... hueyone, I still can't figure out how to tell the difference between deciding to sell a stock and "market timing". I buy a stock when I expect to make a profit some time in the future. I sell a stock when I expect there are better things I could do with the value it represents. If decades go by (or are planned to go by), then that is good "investing". If days or weeks go by, this is "market timing". I don't get it. But I'm content to have it called market timing, and to practice it appropriately (I do so sparingly). Particularly during those rare environments when it's more profitable than "investing". John.
