Yeah, cudos to Jim on the timing of DLTR. I piled into that thing in the mid eighties, and watched it nearly double. Didn’t bail however until Cramer started shouting “SHRINK, SHRINK, SHRINK!” I hardly ever listen to that guy but that was the first time he ever shook me out of a stock. I sold it all the next day at $128. Coulda, woulda, shoulda sold earlier. I just decided stock selection is not something I want to do anymore…just got lucky there. BRK and Indexing will be my MO going forward.
