For me the big question---if I were contemplating taking profits sometime in the near future, would be this:
"Why?"
By that, I mean why in the near future? If I'm not strapped for cash, I've got to ask myself why now? Or soon? And what would the motivation be?
I've had difficulty with this line of self-questioning before and more often than not, my early response moves tend to cost me dearly.
More often than not, when I take profits early without the need to raise cash fast, I'll usually leave an inordinate sum on the table simply because it seem to be the smart move that everybody else makes. But I'm thinking others don't know what makes the most sense any better than I do! And that bothers me because the underlying issue appears to be that none of us knows squat. So we react in fear. I've done this countless times, myself.
So you raise an interesting and important issue for sure. I offer no answer as I have none; but I welcome input from others here.
Because my cost basis is $9.82, it wouldn't take much to push me to sell some at or about the $15 range. Then again, with $15 under my sails, I'll probably be inclined to say screw it, let it ride and let's see how much I really trust myself to operate smoothly and smartly. And it wouldn't be the first time I stared down a 53% gain sitting on the table before me.
But I don't know how I'll move on this, not yet, anyhow.
