This sounds like a repeat of the 4/99 discussions. Except that you're espousing my arguments back then. I've decided to take half my profits, which thankfully won't be due for 15 months. I can weather a decline much better than I could last spring and summer because my net worth is now so much greater.<< Robert i have some of the best tax advisors and people working with me on this. I will remain fully invested with minor adjustments through the yr., nothing radical. I believe we're still in the early stages of another up cycle, Small caps, semi's, software,infrastructure, new issues and other leading techs should do well. have a hard time imagining these stocks pulling back to their 200s - 50s seems more likely in this more certain (vis-a-vis last summer) economic environment. What do you think?<< No and agree, this is planned profit taking in here... Didn't you take some profits last spring?<< Yes i Sold Amzn completely out to raise cash(which was a mistake in my view) so i do have taxes to pay there for this yr.
