Today looks to be the Trump stock market.

Tomorrow we could be back to Biden's.

Tariffs on, stocks go down, tariffs off temporarily (mostly), stocks go up.

I had a large, for me, position in Apple, and was nervous about it, so I bought some puts as "insurance".  On Thursday they got "in the green", but today they will be back to being losers.  I didn't want to sell the position (I did shorten it some earlier).  Puts are an alternative.

Don't sell.
Well eventually you have to, of course.  Unless you just want to sink money into something and never realize a gain.

When you do, sell high.

Not until I have to. Not sure when and if that will be.

I mean, you certainly don't have to sell, but if you don't, then you've only lost money rather than gained it.

I once would note some stock going up and thinking I lost money because I hadn't bought it.

And vice versa.

I'll just let it gain until I'm done letting it gain

that's my plan for a couple more years - the folks handling my account have done a pretty good job the past decade or so
