Yes and these are two of them reaching new 52wk highs. That's what makes the sell decisions so difficult. Buying value is pretty easy but knowing when to sell (or at least peel off some shares) is the hard part. My two sales today also reflect 30 or more month holds from my earlier purchases. This meets my objective of keeping my turnover ratio to 36 months or less. FWIW I am looking for $SPX 1265 or about another 650 DOW pts lower as a first test. No need to stand in the way of such a correction. If I am wrong, most of the portfolio remains 85% invested. EKS
