Everything I sold came out of a ROTH so no tax consequences and I don't have to worry about short/long term.

Since everything is going back into CTIX, I don't figure I have deserted the cause but have acted so that I will have even more to put in it within a matter of months.

Also, I just got plain frustrated with stocks yoyo-ing all the time and I never made a dime off the ups and downs.  Don't plan on making a habit of this, just thought this was a good one time shot.

I see CTIX having some spurts and retracements thru about Nov and then maybe a start to a slow, steady rise with possible intermittent rocket launches.  I plan on being all back into CTIX by that time.

I see myself more as a dirty rotten scoundrel than a bastard.   Have a bet with a guy on the other stock over which will do better over 18 months.  I think if I win I get an Aston Martin Rapide and if he wins I get him a new toupee, hearing aid, and dentures.  Hope that is how he understands the bet.  LOL.
