Sold BBD for 23.3

Sold most of my BBD here at 23.3. It was teasing me, and I got tired of waiting for the extra .1 so I just sold it here. Close enough for me, and I'm keeping about a 1% position anyway, since I picked up some extra at 35 (pre-split). I'll let that ride, since I really like having some BBD in my port.

Thanks for yet another HUGE pick, $$MM!!!

O ye of little faith! Half an hour after this message my limit order for a sell at 23.51 triggered. Another one for the HUGE one!

looks like $$MM will get paid for sleeping at the wheel, this time. Feds left the rates unchanged, and BBD is up 5%!

I was golfing today...I will put in a sell order tonight if I remember. I am kind of hammered right now.

Ok, finally found this thread! (after reading thru about 300 more old posts)
And I stand corrected, as I guess BBD wasn't a loser for me after all. Turns out I did sell some at 23, for a split-adjusted $46 price vs my $40 original entry. The shares left over were a bonus I hung onto because I'd doubled-up at $35 sometime along the way... it just totally slipped my mind that BBD did in fact hit the target, and make me some $$ back in '07, too!

Thanks for this great pick, once again, $$MM!!! You are HUUUUUUUUUUGGGGEEEE!!!

I have not changed my target. Have you enjoyed those dividends along the way?

...and yes, yes I have indeed enjoyed monthly dividends for the past 10+ years, too.
