Seems to have grown to a bigger piece of the portfolio than the investor is comfortable with. Doesn't have too strong an opinion on this particular stock. If you want to trim, a great way is to sell a covered call -- you sell somebody the right to buy the stock from you at a higher price.
With shares right now around $194, you can sell a September $200 call for about $4.50. If the stock doesn't go up, then you end up just hanging on to your stock.
