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?
