In the meantime I bought into the small dip that the market took yesterday, but I am watching closely.  The only two stocks that I hold by themselves are Boeing and Micro$oft, both of which I have held nearly a year.  Both have done very well for me and will continue to do well over the long term.

This isn't chasing a stock, this is a concerted effort to set it on fire.
