IBM...your pension is fine. My 401(k) is in GE. I'm considering taking some $$ off the table when the split goes through. Probably should have done it at 159, but I figured GE has more life left in it. I suspect it does, it always plays this rolling game... Another big chunk of my 401 is in Fidelity Magellan. It was the best offering at the time. Since then, my company added Janus, which I'm switching into. Gotta love IBM and GE...they just keep motoring. While MSFT, CSCO and a host of others have shot up...these two are just long term love affairs. I wonder how long MSFT or CSCO will be at the top? As long as these 2? It'll be tough to top GE...over 100 years.

Mikey--- My pension is safe and in 3 years,3 months, and 23 days I'll br 55 and retired the 1st of the following month,, Your list and mine are considerably different,, but I trade and rarely hold much,, never had a LT gain! You are correct--- DELL can help slightly or hurt a little. If it is UP from the reduced EPS it will be their model of distribution,,,, if down the reason is the sector sux,,, cpq will be impacted either way,,, Glad I sold DELL with just over 1 point on the trade,, holding through today would have seen that vanish..
