Here is an example of how NOT to manage your portfolio. In comparison, the 50% Gains Portfolio is down 14% from its all-time high in 1999.

My portfolio tanked between late July '98 and early Oct '98 about 50%. Since April 12, my portfolio has tanked 55% as of today and the blood may still flow further..... To make matters worse, I am now margined, while I was cash-positive then. But on the brighter side, I just sold my ebay for an 11-fold profit!!
