No. The certificate limit is a hard cap on what you hold, so a purchase that would put you over it is not allowed (you can sell first, then buy). Certificates of companies in yellow, orange or brown do not count toward the overall limit, and orange or brown holdings may exceed the 60% individual limit. If a price move leaves you over a limit, you must sell down on your next stock turn.
