SOLD CSCO

FINALLY!

I've mentioned before how much I hate this stock ever since I picked it up well above where I should have thanks to a market order I should have never placed Feb 15th of last year, it accounted for less than 5% of my portfolio and was just dragging me down. But I was confident I could wait it out and let the stock get back into the black. and today it finally did! I even went so far as to reccomend the stock when it was at $17 a while back.

Today Cisco jumped 3.4 percent to $20.93 shortly before the company's chief operating officer was scheduled to speak at a Merrill Lynch conference.

ok now get this, I made a whopping 34 cents off of this, that's right! Thirty four cents! (it was supposed to be 35 cents but Scottrade my broker was slightly off by a few thousands of a cent in the limit order and it cost me a penny.

If my position in UNH wasnt significant already I'd be even further mon backing, BTW GE is getting into a value play... again, last time I picked it up was at $32.69
