Belinda,

I see no reasons to sell LU.

DIS - hold with a stop in place. Better earnings will lift it back up someday. Everytime I'm there the place is packed and they turn people away.

If your up a lot on AOL you may just want to sit tight, but think about what price it would need to go below that would make you sick and put in a stop. I wouldn't put a stop in before it started trading though because when it hits it goes in as a market order....
Unless they really blow it I don't see it tanking and any pullback will bring in the people sitting on the sidelines wishing they had bought a long time ago (ME!). If your holding in an IRA then you've got no taxes to worry about and if you buy it back for a buck less your ahead.....

As a side note: When are people going to realize AT&T is really ATT.COM. Earnings like this should have put it over it's 52 week high if it was "one of those internet stocks". I'm holding this as a safe haven for any corrections that may or may not come.

Belinda,

I am holding my AOL. Every time I have sold it, I've had to buy it back higher. I just like having some for long term. It's a gorilla. It may pull back some but long term it's only going to go up :)

Belinda,

To ease your mind on downturns... have you considered buying puts to hedge your position or selling covered calls? I find it effective...
