you should sell them ...especially on any bounce...go long when the trend is up...right now the trend is down.Dont fight the trend....hard to lose but you can make the money back when this sector turns around...for now it looks like it can go a lot lower.Lots of nasty surprises every day it seems.
Read the book about jesse livermore.Get it at your library or ebay.
I bought some AIG down here at 21 for holding long term. And I mean long. Someday I'll sell it when (hopefully "if") this all passes. If it doesn't, it doesn't. That's life, as Frankie says.
Well i am still holding long but i did day trade today
Bought some AIG at 20 sold it at 20.50 nothing big tho
Well i am hoping for the worst to be over and i want to be in it when it turn,s around

No problem with that approach. You'll do fine. Also look at UCBH. Very special situation of a mis-characterized bank. Sell 2009 puts when stock dips below $5 and try to pick it up on the cheap. See my threads under stock. If you went into this when it was near the low you would already be sitting on huge gain. Much more to come.
Great opportunity in financials right now but you have to be highly selective.
