I'm starting to believe whoever seeks finds. This is definitely one of the most valuable videos on YouTube teaching this subject. It really made no sense to me when he said ''It doesn't matter whether I'm right or wrong, whether the market goes up and down. I'm good regardless''. People are really losing a sh*t ton of money out here. I personally have been buying stocks since the beginning of the year and yet nothing's changed, but I've been reading articles of people still in the same market pulling off over 350k in just a couple months. Its tough out here!

Meanwhile, the rest of us go broke from eating so much of it.

Coming back to this video now that the market has rocketed off of the pandemic lows! Tough decisions to make!

[elderglass]

Is it ok to sale some of a stock to get some of the profits off it?

[adaw]

I really laughed out loud when you started about Chipotle!
And thanks for the wonderful tips Phil!

[ChrisInvests]

Just finished your book and I highly recommend it! Looking forward to implementing the strategies 👍

[tuphamxuan]

Hey Phil! You mentioned about the real value of a company. Can you make a video to explain deeper about how to calculate it? Thanks

[jonajones]

Understanding the companies you purchase is time comsuming, but a smart investor will take the time to know where their pot of gold is going to.

You are the first person to give real advice, everyone else always say nothing and want the viewer to buy their book or videos.

[TheGreatTradingBros]

You sell it when the discounted future cash flows are less than the current price. But really you sell whenever you have found an investment that has a better future outlook and sometimes that’s selling to hold cash.

Each day I believe more and more in buying an Index Fund and keeping it ... forever.
Almost nobody can time the market, the chances of beating the "buy and hold" not only are lower but we also pay much much more in fees when buy and selling. Also, all the time needed to follow the stocks that we have, etc, etc. An Index fund makes the things Incredibly easy and simple, we just buy and that's it. We forget about wall street is saying, brokers, etc...
I would say: ETF is THE way to go :)

[Sajidkhan-xibn]

Not really what I was looking for. Supposedly I did all the correct fundamental analysis. Build up a portfolio of let’s say about 20 stocks.
What should I do when a stock reaches 20%, should I buy more ? Or book profits? Or systematically sell ?
Conversely, what should I do when a stock declines 20%, should I hold onto it unless it gets back up? Or should I systematically try to sell out all my stocks?

I know if I believe in a stock, I should hold onto it forever but then what’s the use of having all the wealth when you are 62 or something? When are you gonna live ? Most of us will dead by heart attacks and strokes by then

I remember purchasing this company stock MCX (in India), close to the book value, the parent company of this firm was going through some serious problem at the time and MCX was beaten down severely although this company had a strong balance sheet (almost debt free). One year down the line MCX trebled in price and me selling out, only to watch go up by 10x (from my buy price).

Hi,

I am glad I watched this video.

I had a doubt about selling, from the book I had understood that we sell when the three indicators say to do it.

[craigadamkelly]

I got COKE at@ $130 and sold at $185 when it started going down but as soon and I sold it, it shot up to $400. Thanks Phil learning alot keep it up

[wakeupnyc]

Yup i did, when i first started trading. Good thing i didnt sell at the dip in December and started investing in great companies. Now im up 12.7 %

Enphase Energy. I made the mistake to sell when the stock was going down around the beggining of the pandemic. I originally purchased it when it was hovering around 5 dollars, and sold just under $60 (although my Roth is still invested in it : ) All things considered, I made out pretty good, however now look at it today just about a year after I sold it, its hovering around 190-200. This was a company that I highley beleive in and still do (Insert the Buffett affect here), and even though the stock went even lower than my sell price, I bought other stocks with some of those proceeds a couple of months later. Overall, 3 of them now are performing very well, even better in some cases, so now I'm back at that question again. Do I sell or hodl : ) since 2 have skyrocketed in short term, I think I should shave off some profits since 2 are overvalued. But then there's

Great video once again. Selling is as important as when you buy. Setting up targets for yourself takes out emotion, which is a very important catalyst.

[j.]

do I sell only the profit margin from the principal or the whole thing?

Hi Phil, are there any videos on your channel where you walk us through reading the Three Tools? I have read Rule 1 twice, have invested a little money but I don't feel super confident (yet) in my ability to work with the tools. I used the search feature on the channel and came up with useful videos....but none that have been exactly what I need. Thanks!
