[QUOTE="LibertyTurns, post: 427761, member: 789"] Sorry this is broken into parts but work has been getting in the way. Approx 30% of my holdings within each account where I’ve got individual securities I hold a limited number of what I’ll call my gold stocks. These are securities that have an extremely long term proven track record of appreciation/ dividend increases. You can probably guess what they are, but these are my buy and hold stocks and only in certain circumstances, ie May 2008 when the market started crossing over have I cashed these out and waited to regain larger positions after the crash. I don’t ascribe to the “trying to catch a falling knife” strategy and as I stated earlier it took a couple of acute experiences trying to do so to teach me that valuable lesson. Most times it pays to be in the market but when the market’s rolling over I seek safe haven. This doesn’t happen often, but when it does you have to be very smart or very lucky to fend off equity deterioration. I’m not that guy. [/QUOTE]
