I had bought my latest group of stocks a few weeks before this recent bottom in early October.

I stomached further selling before this rally had finally got going.

It's been fun.

More recently each day I contemplated taking profits.
Each day I was glad I didn't.

Today I finally broke down and sold my NVDA at a nice profit. I may be very early but I guess I should not look back. I had gotten in at 9.50ish.

I also sold half of my SEBL.
I bought it in the high sixes after holding it for what I consider a long time. Over a month and a half...

This helps to take some of the sting out of catching too many bear thrown knives this year.

I'm still holding some of my other tech stuff like BRCD and CSCO, despite the fact that I'm wondering if we are seeing an exhaustion gap here in Techland.

BRCD has been giving me an ulcer. <g>
Still waiting to see some profit in that one. Argh.

Marketwise, I'm wondering if the election will be cause for a shift in sentiment or a new time capsule in Voltspeak.

Another thing that has me wondering is when they plan to begin dropping bombs and troops over in the sand.
Will they wait until the market shows some good technical signs that we are in a recovery?

Or is that something that they don't even consider when planning strategy...

I wonder how far this rally will go. Selling early in a good rally hurts almost as much as watching a stock dip.
Hope I didn't get out too soon.
