I have yet to sell a stock, it's so long term for me. I am contemplating selling 2 and have alerts set up that if they reach a certain point I will then make the decision to do so or not. Anything in the Market now until November 5th is going to be so over reactive. Then until next year when we know who the new President is and everyone settles back down. I have a feeling the upcoming year markets are going to recover ok but not great. Human nature to hit the panic button, then read what's going on.

I do need to research more funds that pay as well. One of my goals is to get my business excess cash that is just sitting into a hedge fund and perhaps get investors to come along as well. Right now I have a diversified ish portfolio but single companies. I try to stick to REIT's or Energy but have swayed for a few companies with a STRONG history.

@Ian Hopfe that is great. A diverse portfolio is a good way to go. Do they give you a breakdown of what they are invested in?

@Ian Hopfe you are on that track I am on. Invest it and let it be. So many over react to a down market. Just trust in it and let it grow. It's a hard thing to do but so effective.

@Ian Hopfe I am using a few different avenues to build more investments and extra income through dividend payments
