Closed my MSFT position after a 29-day hold — +$340k

Bought 3,000 shares of MSFT at a $391 average and closed the position after a 29-day hold.
Ended up around +29% / $340k.
Still very bullish on Microsoft long term, which honestly made selling harder than I expected. I decided the move was big enough for me to lock it in rather than keep moving my target higher.
I’m an international investor based outside the United States so I don’t owe U.S. capital-gains tax on the sale, and my country doesn’t impose personal capital-gains tax on me either.
Curious what you guys would’ve done — taken the 29% in a month or kept holding for the ATH?

3,000 MSFT shares later…

Held through earnings and finally seeing the thesis play out. Up about $213k on 3,000 shares with a $391 average.
My plan has always been to hold long term, but I’m curious what everyone thinks:
Do you think MSFT reaches a new ATH ($555) within the next 6-12 months, or is this rally getting ahead of itself?
Interested in hearing both bull and bear cases.
