but by the time I pay capital gains...
You can play that theory through covered calls, You may lose the stock anyway and pay taxes but if you pick a higher strike price than the current price you will make out better than if you just sold. If it takes off like a rocket then you miss opportunity. However, if it goes like you expect you have the stock and a few extra dollars to buy more.
