my stocks. Mostly the more risker ones and kept the rest. Well, for 3 years it looked like I should have kept them. I was just a little early and now right back about where I started. A little ahead on the ones I sold. The others were high quality, good dividend stocks and have given me a little extra income in retirement. So, the "being half right" worked out well.
