WBD I have slowly been exiting at lower prices. I sold all my shares where i had tax losses and 1/3 of my share on friday where i had actual losses though small at this point in non taxable accounts. I am holding all the shares where I have long term capital gains until next year when I will reassess. Overall I sold about 1/3 of my position so far. The pundits seem convinced that the current administration will put their thumb on the scale to make sure Ellison ends up with WBD. I have no idea what will transpire and realize that this was a poor investment decision on my part and will be lucky to get out with any profit. I will not be so fortunate with my paramount purchase.
