I know the conventional wisdom is to balance your portfolio by investing in your underperforming sectors using profits from your better performing sectors. Although that seems a bit counter intuitive to a journalism/humanities person like myself, I'll accept it at least for the sake of argument. However, what is wrong with gleaning those same gains from your winners and parking them in a "safe" place such as a MM or CD? You can then let your initial investments build again; glean them again, etc. You might sacrifice a few percentage points, but you might also protect your gains from being wiped out. Just a thought.
