Panic selling only makes the situation worse. Maybe we're seeing a lot of that right now and not just in AOL.

I'm concerned that the recovery may be very slow because investors who bought AOL cheap will be there to take quick profits on any rebound.

Any thoughts on the effects of panic selling?

Mutual Understanding

Magellan backs off techs

The world's largest mutual fund is backing off on techs, according to Jim Lowell, editor of Fidelity Investor newsletter. The $90 billion Fidelity Magellan Fund (FMAGX) sold off nearly 5 percent or roughly $4 billion worth of technology holdings, Lowell reported Friday. Fidelity spokesman Scott Beyeral confirmed that technology represented 20.9 percent of fund manager Bob Stansky's portfolio at the end of the first quarter, down from 25.5 percent Jan 31.

While more than a fifth of holdings are still dedicated to tech issues, the recent sell off could be a bellwether for this very volatile sector. "It calls attention to the fact that the sector in which Stansky has the most experience may be showing signs of near-term weakness," said Lowell. Stansky is not alone, either. Will Danoff of Fidelity's $41 billion Contrafund (FCNTX) is also pulling back. Danoff reduced his stake by nearly 7 percent or about $3 billion.

Where to next? In both cases, managers appear to have taken an interest in the energy sector as well as parking a bit in cash, as a defensive gesture, Lowell said.
