[QUOTE="satellitedriver, post: 191328, member: 1664"] If it is a 401k, there is no tax consequence for the sale. If one has held an investment more than a year the capital gains tax is set at 15%. Tax consequence is a serious matter in ones financial planning. Ups's 2.5% dividend doesn't even cover yearly inflation rates. The growth rate has been nil. Sorry to sound so negative. I believe in UPS as a solid employer, but not as an investment in a portfolio. I have many stocks that pay 3 times the dividend of UPS and have grown by 20% a year. Just put your money in a total market fund to diversify and forget it if you are not willing to do alot of research and due diligence. PAX [/QUOTE]
