StockMan, Do you remember when Cisco was achieving over 100% annual profit returns for several years running prior to 1995? Then it had two or three mediocre quarters and like a fool I sold all my holdings at a healthy profit, the last sale at $34 in 9/95. Since then Cisco has more than quadrupled. bigcharts.com It was one of the worst investment decisions I ever made and I will not make it again. As long as it maintains its #1 position in the fastest growing industry I will only ADD to my position during signs of price weakness. Period. To second guess what a stock will do tomorrow or next quarter is a waste of time. The question every investor should ask himself is whether the Cisco's, Dell's, Compaq's and Microsoft's of the world will be higher five to ten years from now? That's how one builds a very rewarding portfolio and not the way you pretend. Good luck to all, Allan
