I was just reviewing old posts on my investment blog. On Wednesday, July 27, 2016 I sold some apple stock at $104, locking in a 10% gain. I felt quite smug and brilliant. Apple is at $139.85 today. Doesn't look quite so brilliant today does it? However, any day you make any money is a good day.

It just confirms the validity of my second rule; don't sell a winning stock. (or, only sell losers)
