Elwood: It seems like history is repeating itself.

For the last couple of quarters, CPQ rises before earnings reports then settles back into a turgid slump.

I have sold most of my CPQ, except for 800 that I elected to hold. I found the selling very, very difficult.

It's like I was held hostage by the CPQ stock and had fallen in love with my captor despite the misery it had caused. This might be your problem too.

Look at it this way, I sold last week, bought LU, DELL, CSCO, and GE. and the stock is up 8% in less than a week!

Suggest you unload at least some of your burden and spread the money around a little. Like having a breath of fresh air $$$.
