Thanks for the info. I think I will follow your advise on holding DELL rather than trying to time the exit and re-entry points.

<<The proxy statement does include one item to increase the authorized shares from 1,005,000,000 to 3,005,000,000. This would allow for one 3:1 or two 2:1 (my pick) splits...>> Pardon my math here, but if you have a 2:1 split, then you go from 1,000,000,000 to 2,000,000,000. A second 2:1 split takes you from 2,000,000,000 to 4,000,000,000, which exceeds the 3,000,000,000. No? Also are there really 1 billion shares out there or do we have an extra zero here?
