They way I think about these things is "have I made a good return on the money in the investment timeframe?"
The answer is clearly a yes. There is zero risk in taking the money now. If you take the cash then stop looking at the share price because you have a nice wad of cash in your pocket and the price now is irrelevant.
Could you have a better return? Maybe. Could double from here. Could drop to below your starting position. There is risk in leaving it though.
Personally I like the idea of taking out your initial investment (maybe a bit more if you could do with the cash), then you have zero risk in leaving the rest there to see what happens.
Thanks for the reply. I think I’m going to take out half which will give me a decent return on my initial investment. I’ll leave the rest in and see what happens.
I know it’s too late to get in now but where are you (and others) trading? Had a brief look last night and it seems the main US app isn’t available here and most UK sites don’t do US stocks anyway.
