Chris, See my note to D above this one. My two year target for GZTR is $25. I will sell a third at $9, if it happens in the next 3 months, as that pays for all that I've invested in the issue. Another third would go at $15 within 6 months, $18 in a year.

I take off thirds for several reason. One is to cover my cost for the entire position, as mentioned above, which I do occasionally. However, I also have a valuation over time line that shows where I think the stock should be at any given date in the future. With GZTR, my average cost is so far below what I consider fair value, that I plan to be out when it hits fair value of about $25. This time, I will take off a third at about a third of fair value, a second third at 60-70% and be gone at fair value. Sometimes I let them run beyond fair value, but not too often, as it makes me nervous to be running with the blundering herd, even when my cost basis is much lower.
