Lifetime

Whenever I sell it, the cash will stay in a money market.

I'm not planning on pulling it out of that money market account this year. So yeah, while the goal is to maybe pay for vacation, I actually wouldn't use the money for such. If that makes any sense, haha.

All right veteran Wall Streeters, here's my scenario...
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/17/25 02:07 PM ET
Did you sell before ER day?
HokieAl • 02/20/25 08:40 AM ET
Oh look, a big post-lunch rally.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/20/25 12:56 PM ET
haha congrats. I can tell from your posts that you are viewing this as
HokieAl • 02/20/25 01:03 PM ET
Ignoring taxes and transaction costs
HokieDelNorte • 02/20/25 01:24 PM ET
And timing the market. Doing that off an earnings call is nothing
IV_Hokie12 • 02/20/25 02:56 PM ET
Very true
HokieAl • 02/20/25 01:33 PM ET
Good points, thanks.**
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/20/25 01:04 PM ET
Well you have the most important part of investing down. Not getting too
IV_Hokie12 • 02/20/25 12:58 PM ET
Nope, didn't sell.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/20/25 09:43 AM ET
My advice...

never a bad time to make a profit.**
BobG • 02/17/25 03:56 PM ET
So when I first started and had a big gainer,I'd take my initial investment
UTPr0sim • 02/17/25 03:54 PM ET
You should put a “Stop Loss” order under all of the stock. It takes the emo
dolph • 02/17/25 03:42 PM ET
So a little more on Nebius.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/17/25 03:07 PM ET
There is a Russian component to this story?
HokieAl • 02/17/25 03:21 PM ET
Yes, it is heavily tied in to AI, so it crashed with NVIDIA
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/17/25 03:27 PM ET
Replace the term, "investment" with "gambling"
TechHokie13 • 02/17/25 02:49 PM ET
If the goal is just to make a quick profit and get out, then you are
Tafkam Hokie • 02/18/25 08:17 AM ET
That's the thing...I don't know.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/18/25 09:00 AM ET
Lol, the last time I gambled...
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/17/25 02:53 PM ET
Gotta love the gamblers fallacy **

Of course, you all missed the most obvious answer here...

My dad used to say about stocks: “pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered.”

I'm going to try that line on my wife at some point and see how it goes.

Ordinary Income vs. Capital Gains is a Consideration
Hank78 • 02/17/25 02:36 PM ET
My first thought, hold it for a year. and, of course, don't look at it...
`lag • 02/17/25 03:01 PM ET
Whenever I sell it, the cash will stay in a money market. ◄
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/17/25 02:44 PM ET
What does TSL have for retirement benefits for you? Roth 401(k) or IRA?
beancounter77 • 02/17/25 05:08 PM ET
It doesn't make any difference when it comes to taxes.
EDGEMAN • 02/17/25 03:02 PM ET
Ah, ok. Thanks.**
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/17/25 03:10 PM ET
I pay taxes on my mutual funds every year, and I haven't pulled anything...
EDGEMAN • 02/17/25 03:20 PM ET
realistically the tax impact is probably minor
HokieAl • 02/17/25 03:09 PM ET
Agreed.
Hank78 • 02/17/25 03:57 PM ET
First, ignore any price targets or articles
HokieAl • 02/17/25 02:31 PM ET
Selling
Mark3216 • 02/17/25 02:20 PM ET
Disclaimer: my stock advice sucks. But...
MP4VT2004 • 02/17/25 02:17 PM ET
The question is why is NVIDIA investing in them & is this the sole reason
Vtskier1 • 02/17/25 02:16 PM ET
Take profits but keep the initial value in the stock. **
ModerateHokie • 02/17/25 02:15 PM ET
Yep. Up ~40% - Sell 40% of stake - let the rest ride - house money.**
RTFC • 02/17/25 04:33 PM ET
This!**
All4VT • 02/17/25 03:07 PM ET
Also, to add onto that...
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/17/25 02:12 PM ET
Are you willing to buy 4k or more?
IV_Hokie12 • 02/17/25 03:37 PM ET
I don't know what any of that means, haha.
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/17/25 03:39 PM ET
don't sell options. You are too new to the game
HokieAl • 02/17/25 03:57 PM ET
So I probably wouldn't do that then, although maybe learn about it
IV_Hokie12 • 02/17/25 03:52 PM ET
Get to the risk/ reward- upside $700, downside $3300 if goes to zero**
Jwunderdog • 02/17/25 04:12 PM ET
Yeah, I'm not that much of a high roller, haha.**
Chris ColemanAdmin • 02/17/25 03:54 PM ET
I learned that earnings reports tend to be risky for holding onto...
MP4VT2004 • 02/17/25 02:19 PM ET
If it's money you can afford to lose then maybe let it ride....
