Might want to dip 30 large, 15 small on the GM (Take out 30% if you have alot of shares, 15 if you have a few) if it slips after lunch from the 'news'.

Technical: looks like a lot of selling pressure but should turn up after lunch. Sell some after the short jump up. It's friday btw, no one likes to hold on weekends.

Your pull out points in order: (since a high 30 was seen)
* 26-27 (30% out)
* 24 (50% out)
* Your bottom line 21-22 (20% out)

Of course you could pull it all out at 25-26, and call it a day.

You did ride a NICE wave.

Why is it that I didn't know about Petco yesterday? A huge opportunity missed!

I bought Alcon at around $30 about 4 years ago, it hit almost $150 has settled around $100. Gold has been good to me too, as have oil futures (loving the price of gas). Best investment has been So Cal real estate . And dumping my stock options 6 years ago, work sucked. Retirement rocks, had a few lemons along the way too, but have been very lucky as well.

Sad part is most people spend more time picking a movie to go see than tracking their investments. Want a great tip, pay off debt, when you owe money you are someones bltch till you pay it off.
