Thanks, Graham, but as I mentioned earlier, I sold on June 2 for a 13% gain. I do trade technically, but with an eye on fundamentals.

I've employed new strategies into my own investing style. I still think the big money is still made by correctly picking a value stock and holding. I sold way to early on my HSY CPB & GIS years ago. I however made a very good return on all. The Hershey Company (HSY) is a perfect example. The stock hit a new 52 week high. today. I thought it was fully valued in the 60ies years ago (new 52 week high today at 117. If I had held. I certainly would be thinking about selling it now. :+ ) My attraction back then. They were all values at my buy time. This within certain metrics of value. They IMO were also Buffett targets. A win win I was thinking. This IMO also shows how hanging on to a value stock long term is better than a quick near term takeout. Message 24522120 Message 26683256
