XWG--Bobwins, I sold mine in the 7's so misery loves company. I take consolation in the fact that HWEB is constantly saying stocks he has sold continue to rise. We may choose to sell based upon value parameters just when the market is starting to value it like a growth stock and push the PE. I may never choose to buy a stock with a 15 PE, but it is still hard to sell at a 15 PE and watch the PE go to 40!!!
