Brooklyn1, what was their guidance like? Raised? It all depends on the market rally, whether it is sustainable or not (IMO). If the market comes crashing down, I don't see many stocks holding up unless it's defensive in nature like Dollar Tree and the likes. If I recall correctly, there was a mutual fund based in Las Vegas called the Vice Fund ... . these guys said the defense, tobacco, alcohol and gaming industries were more or less immune to general market conditions ... so their holdings consisted of stocks from these industry groups. I beg to differ regarding that matter and outta these four sectors, the gaming group is much more prone to getting lit up because of the economy. That's why I said what's their 'guidance'. What do they expect in the near term future for them? Now if the general markets hold up and the rally is intact, I see no reason for you to take profits so early. Best of luck
