The problem with AOL stock is not when to buy it, but when to sell it. :)

When that music stops there definitely will not be enough chairs.

I did preciesely the same thing you did six months ago. I am quite a bit better off I sold all BRKB now. I feel like I am abandoning a great mentor and the most integrity of any CEO ever,

hey - this is fine by me. There is no law that says all of your investments have to be in one holding. What's that word ? Diversify ? That's what some Buffett guy says once in awhile. I sold some BRK also - to dump in the Oil sector for the last few months. It isn't up 200%, but it's up 40-45% AND they have REAL Earnings to boot !

No, I can understand selling brk .. it is and
continues to under perform. As to risk with
other investments .. well that is what they
have "stop orders" for.

But be watchful .. the basis of buying based
on its a neat stock to own .. as opposed to
the underlying companies ability to generate
sufficient earnings to justify cost .. is
intrinsically dangerous.

good luck
