re Re:>> Value Stocks sold w/ the intention to Buy back at even a "better" value.<<

OK, you are betting on further decline and that cheap stocks can get cheaper (they always can). If you are right, then great, but what do you do if you are wrong and the stocks turn up? Buy back the shares that you sold (at a loss maybe) at higher prices? Wait and hope that you are right in the end and your macro call turns out OK?

Some of my biggest mistakes are selling at/near lows (when charts and macro news seem hopeless) or even more often selling too early into a recovery.
