Smart Investor,

There is nothing ever wrong with taking profits, especially if you are becoming too weighted in one stock. Personally, INTC is my biggest holding. It didn't start out that way, it just grew and grew and grew. Obviously, there will be some stocks that out perfomr INTC in the next 12 months. The question is which ones and do they have more risk. I consider INTC almost risk free, especially as the time horizon is extended. As a long term investment, I see almost zero risk and significant rewards. Of course this is a dynamic industry and things could change, but so far I see nothing to stop Intel's continued dominance of the CPU industry. AMD and CYRX have been reduced to rubble.

There is also the 50/50 option. Sell some stock to lock in profits and hold some for long term appreciation. Just a thought.

Good luck,

FF
