Is there any Tom Kurlak equivalent here ? Everytime Intel or any semis do a puddle-jump by gaining no more than a point or two, this scholar of semiconductors at Merrill Lynch wakes up and the stocks retreat. Where as these so-called Internet stocks have been making quantum leaps everyday without a recess and there is absolutely no effective check on these. Have not seen any big house making any direct negative comments to-date on the sector either. Narotham

I have always found that I need to start a selling program (100 shares/day) in order to sell all of my shares on the way up. In addition, I have found that it pays to do this through an equity collar program. These programs allow me to lock in today's price and sell the stock after my holding period makes them subject to long term capital gains (a $200,000 savings on a $1,000,000 gain!). You can get these programs though your broker. The least costly program I have found is offered through tyillc@mediaone.net.
