Thanks again. No, I didn't add to any of those, as I've come to the recent conclusion (today as a matter of fact) with my own risk tolerance, that I would rather play it with the index via QQQ or (and less likely) DIA. I wish I had the emotional capacity or the time required, to "do" the individual issues, but unfortunately I don't. Part of my learning curve I think...but it's best to do what I'm more comfortable with even if it results in underperformance because of my choosing to do so. It's also better for my REM's, family, etc.

You're like a Michael Jordan of this stuff, and although I'd love to "be like Mike"...I know in my heart I will not be able to reach that rung (sadly but realistically). I do still have SKX (and a little droopy...although not little enough <gg>) though and will ride it to its destination. I must say though, it is tough to maintain that discipline (of staying away from the indivdual issues) when they run right before my eyes (COO was a nice example of that grrr) esp. when the market itself didn't reach the entry zone...coulda, woulda, shoulda ya know. Oh well.

So, the next time you see me asking you about individual stocks, please, by all means, slap my hand. <gg>
