Investors have been flirting with Dow 12,000 all week. I have heard comments ranging from "time to sell!" to "I guess it's OK to get back in!" While I don't advocate wholesale buying or selling when an index reaches a round number, there are specific actions that you can take to take better control of your investments. I discussed Dow 12,000 with CBS3 this morning.
