We never discussed "freezing" a stock in a portfolio by virtue of the recommender calling a "sale". What does anyone think?

For example, if someone were to claim that my FARO would see ten points more, but close the year at the current price, I would not dismiss it. I know I personally would sell some stock in the $40's.

Steven, would it be possible to add my KTEC pick to the double portfolio using the prices the day I finally posted, or is that not reasonable to everyone?

I posted it 1/15 at 12:36 here:
Message 19695066


According to Yahoo, KTEC closed that day at $17.00:

Thanks.

In the 2 weeks since the last update, both portfolios have pulled back a bit. 'Double' is now up 7.7 % and 'Safe' is now up 2.2 %. The performance of the individual stocks certainly reflects the intent of the portfolios as 'double' has 8 double digit gainers and 4 double digit losers but 'safe' has only 2 double digit gainers and no double digit losers.

Side note: I bought back into WBR after the slide from the top. I also bought Dale's IRL. I'm still holding FTST although I'm amazed at how many shares it trades and at the extreme price volatility.
