Stubs. I've got no method or consistent approach to selling these things. Maybe when the stock stalls, but sometimes I'm not paying close enough attention to see this. Maybe when the stock drops precipitously on bad news, or if the stock is downgraded by an analyst and the reasoning makes some sense to me. It's easier for me to hold a stub longer than a full position. With a stub, I've already got my main money out, and I figure anything up is gravy for me and anything down or doing nothing for months and months and months, well that's okay too, because I've previously sold most of my shares.
