Well, given the name of the competitive company right across the
Mountain View City Dump from here, my first thought was slightly
different: ;-} ;-}

if (&latest_stock_price("sun") < $prev_price{"sun"}) {
$proceeds = $shares_owned{"sun"} * $prev_price{"sun"};
&sell_shares("sun", $shares_owned{"sun"});
&buy_shares("sgi", $proceeds / &latest_stock_price("sgi"));
}
