Q: I lost a lot of money on Apple when it fell from $640 but I sold at $540 and bought back in at $490 on the way back up. I think it is a GREAT company with solid earnings growth and a low P/E but the market has a hard time giving it the same kind of respect that it gives Google, Amazon, Twitter etc.
What do you think about the stock for the next year and what would make you sell it?
Thanks,
Ken

Q: Seasons greetings 5i!

I currently own VIG,FEZ,QQQ,IWO and BRK.B in my US portfolio each about 6%.
Going into 2014 and with the expectation of tappering and rise in interest rates. Are these ETF's ok to hold for the next year or two and is it ok to bump up my holdings to 10% in each?
I own SLW for insurance as well.

Looking forward to your reply.
Thanks.

Q: My question is on Abbott Labs and Abbvie. I had 300 shares of Abbott and they split. Now I have 300 of Abbott and 300 of Abbvie. Should I hold both sell both or keep one over the other. I know that Humira comes off of patton in 2016 in US and 2017 in Europe. Should I sell Abbvie before then?
