Q: Can I have your comments on the recent decline. Is it an over-reaction to HCG? If HCG is dumping brokers, couldn't SCB be picking these brokers up? Overall thoughts on the company as well.

Thanks,

Q: You may have read the Barrons article of a few days ago. I would think it may have contributed to the further weakness of the SP. It sounds like a bit of a hatchet job but do you consider it has much merit? I currently own 600 shares at an average cost of $41, and although I still like the stock, think it might be prudent to sell half in case of further weakness or a prolonged sideways slide. What would you do? It is still just 5% of my portfolio. I continue to berate myself for falling in love with companies. Thanks.
