The SPY position is analogous to a cash position, and I acknowledge that it is really too high.

Maybe, maybe not. You need enough buying power to build flagging positions, even open new ones.

my ultimate target for any stock,, at 50% above its current S&P price, at which point I would be all out

That's a wide range. Plenty of room for gain and pain both. I imagine diversification helps offset overall portfolio volatility. Personally, I'd have a hard time buying something that's down, say, 30% more than the S&P.
