I am not willing to sell JDSU until it makes it to the S and P 500. You have made some good trading moves but i am unwilling to risk not having this stock into such an annoucement. That is when we get our "yahoo like" pop in this stock. There won't be many sellers going into the day it gets added. At that point, i would probably sell 1/3 to 1/2 of my position. Of course ,it will be worth a lot more than it is today. I have deferred my selling to this date. I looked into other high PE companies (and low revenues) that got added to the S and P 500 in the past and came away convinced that JDSU's addition is inevitable and likely to happen very soon. If someone wants examples of those that are similiar but with a much lower market cap---i will be glad to list them.
