I know nothing about your "fund" in which you hold these VYEY shares. But it strikes me that unless you have some legal compulsion to sell due the fund's charter or by-laws you're being hasty in selling simply for the sake of some non-binding "rule" you've created for yourself and, in this case, boxed yourself into.

In his epic tome, "Self Reliance", Ralph Waldo Emerson wrote these incandescent words,

"A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds."

Please don't assail me; they're Emerson's words, not mine. But I believe them worthy of consideration and respect. And you don't strike me as having the "little mind" that Emerson spoke of; you seem, rather, to be a very open-minded, intelligent individual.

And if your "fund", in its charter or by-laws, doesn't have some sort of language allowing for careful, deliberate, case-by-case exceptions for positions in the "fund", then the people who created the framework for the "fund" weren't thinking ahead very far.
