UAL Steve, about the only sector that is strong right now is the airline sector having said that UAL is underperforming others low PE great % capacity, low fuel prices I would expect to see this one recover some but a retiree should NOT be taking a bet on all/most of the money he/she needs to live on in stocks, let alone a single issue you said he >> plans to live for the next 2 years on the income from selling some UAL stock the key word here is "some" what he should do depends on his entire financial position primarily what % of the total is locked in UAL and of course the tax situation of holding/selling this stock there is no easy answer here without knowing the whole picture
