Meaning of "reduce" recommendation?

[kgoodwin]

Morningstar have a Reduce recommendation on some stocks such as CSL and RHC. If these stocks were in my portfolio, should I sell the whole parcel or only some?

RHC stock price has been powering along for over a decade. I'd want to know their reasoning for that rec.

Reduce means reduce your holding. Sell means sell the lot.

Perhaps consider that recommendations by brokers may be made with interests other than yours in mind.

Hi kgoodwin,

Even if the recommendation is wrong (perhaps) it is going to cause some selling.
You have to ask yourself a lotta questions.
Why did you buy them?
Are the reasons still valid?
How much risk can you bear?

Are they doin' what you wanted?
Very dependant on your financial position!
