Q: I wonder about letting your winners run vs diversification. I recently donated half of my PBH(up 300%) to charity, and it still is 5% of my portfolio. Is this an appropriate way to balance those competing ideas? I read that you can't get a "10 bagger" if you keep selling your winners, and at least some pundits think it's 10 baggers that make a portfolio a success, but surely that unbalances the portfolio? confused.

Q: I own TCL.A (2%) and am thinking of replacing it with either CLR, BOS or ECI. I already own 4% ECI and 3% CLR in my portfolio. What would be your suggestion.

Q: What are your thoughts on Brinker International Inc (EAT).
I purchased this recently and it has a good run up in the short time I have owned it. Should I continue to hold. My concern is that revenue growth seems to be flat but earnings growth good. Usually this is unsustainable over the longer term.
Thank you for your service. I learned about Brinker (high ROE) from an earlier question posted on July 25.
