I’m taking off for a couple weeks R&R; No phone; No internet.
After much debate I decided to sell everything with the exception of a small position in JDSU. On this position I have a 40 cent trailing stop.

Out of:
AKRX @ 12.72. 15.5% gain
MDCO @ 22.08 5.1% gain
VPHM @ 31.75 8.6% gain
SPG @ 136.63 2.8% gain.

I toyed with the idea of placing trailing stops but decided to cash in. This way I know exactly where I am. I already had the trailing stop set for JDSU and wasn’t fast enough to get it sold at days end. It’s not a full position so it can’t hurt me too bad.

I’ll post a spreadsheet when I get back.

Dead Dog Have a great trip but go easy on the Mai Tai cocktails ....and limit your "activities" to perhaps one grass skirted Island girl per day LOL
SERIOUSLY ya may consider taking a position in DDD and let it ride. The CNBC Fast money report indicated that the potential for DDD is HUGE.
I have increased my position in DDD.......and think about it ......DDD could wind up paying for your vacation.........TAKE CARE DEAD DOG and have a wonderful vacation.........Phoenix!
