    So @fireopal do you think WTW is a buy/hold/sell?

    Think i posted that i have been playing this since Oprah came on board & i have free shares @ this point that i was going to sell when it hit $60. but changed my mind & will be holding for as long as O is on board b/c i do think this will be heading higher. SO to answer your question, if i didn't already have some then i would buy on a nice pull back & hold. Also actually think i am going to start playing this short which i haven't done yet but $ to made there too so....

    What you are saying is it might be a volatile road in the short to medium term with all of the speculation :)

    She has transformed this sleeping giant and while she has made a lot of money, the cumulative profit for shareholders is a massive multiple of Oprah's profit in monetary terms.

    It might be healthy to see a pull back to $58ish a share - this would allow some consolidation and then hopefully it can push on again. Oprah has certainly done the business with this one!

    The consolidation seems under way - somewhere around $58 would seem to be the critical point :)

    I would argue there is potentially more downside in the short to medium term after the phenomenal rise of late. As a consequence, I will be watching this one with a view to picking up some cheap stock when the profit-taking is overdone.

    I would have expected to see at least some profit taking in light of the market falls of late but this has held fairly steady - it can't defy gravity forever but there must be some good underlying strength with this business. One to buy on weakness :)

    This stock is unbelievably strong when you bear in mind the recent price rise and market volatility. It does beg the question, is there something going on behind-the-scenes?
