Incidentally, now that we are in new high ground, anyone who has sold recently made a mistake by not holding on longer. BIG BLUE is still a great buy. Not at all. #1 I sold 20% @$169.5 a month ago since my gains from buying at $24 had me over my limit of what I want to have in one stock. I trimmed back to 4% of total portfolio. I hope Big Blue goes up so I can do it again. #2 If I had bought Amazon.com with the gains, then I would have been a very happy (and lucky at gambling) camper. Bottom line, diversifying after a huge run is healthy. It is the managers of big companies that aren't smart enough to take some profits that I worry about.
