>>Profit Taking<< Badger, If I own a stock for several years and have a tremendous gain, like CSCO and INTC, I would hesitate to take profit. On the other hand, if I own a stock which shows some decent gain for a very short period of time, I have no reservation to take profit. As an AMD investor right now, I would very much like to lock into my juicy profit. I might kick myself in the time to come. That's investing for you. As you have already known, this AMD stock is very volatile. Time Traveler

<<Are you talking about just taking profits, or are you considering going short as well? I'd like your opinion as a current AMD investor.>> I am currently still hold AMD stock. I think there are more positive news haven't come out. I don't think short AMD at current price range is good idea. If some positive news push AMD stock to $30 level, then I might sell some of my shares. It also depends on what kind of good news, If DELL also on-board using K6, I think AMD stock can easily break up $30 level. Anyway, the worst is behind AMD. They have good products(K6-2, K6-3 and K7) to compete with INTEL. Yield problem has been solved. Market also has accepted AMD products.
