I usually close out a position completely. In the case of DSX, I sold about half my shares when the stock hit $40. I plan to close out my position in DSX next year. I currenly hold 37 stocks but I plan to keep that number to 30 or under in the future.<br /><br />I owned BOA and ACAS when they were paying a dividend. I did not set a drop in dividend as a strict criteria to sell. I am planning on

Do you do alot of &#39;closing out&#39; of a position or do you usually keep a stock once you purchase it? Of course I could see you selling a company if they stopped paying dividends, but for the most part do you -set it and forget it- as long as the dividends are coming in? <br />What is the max amount of stocks do you want in the portfolio?
