Sold COH and HANS

Dear Diary,

I just sold all but one share of Coach (COH) at $23.99 a share, based on a Narrowing Net Profit Margin and project earnings for 2009 of $1.89 a share.

I sold out all but one share of Hansen Naturals for $43.86, based on the Holy Grail approach, as the stock now trades at 20 times projected earnings per share with a widening Net Profit Margin. My original purchase price was $35.97, far above what I should have paid last year, but the concept works out the same, just with less profit.
