On taking losses: I'm not saying I think you schould in this CASE but when managing a portfolio of stocks..I like to think of it as gardening I always let my flowers grow and pick the weeds...to many individual investors sell their winners and keep thier losers...Theirs no such thing as making to much on a stock..but you can't say the same when it comes to loses...also a rule of thumb for longer term holders..if you would buy the stock back if it corrected 15% then don't sell it...if you wouldn't then you might consider a sale...
