I still hold my small amount of GM mainly for their autonomous driving division.I believe I bought around the same time you did. Buffet sold a large chunk of his airline positions (ie Southwest) recently. For me, it would be selling due to a significant change in the company (ie coronavirus) and no longer a value play and into another company w/ similar value but would do better under the 'New Normal'. These are the companies I am trying to find, 'New Normal' w/ value. But I tend to get the feeling that it maybe just better to sell most everything and wait it out to find the 'New Normal' companies some other time. I would think it is times (markets) like these where the shrewd & knowledgeable investor would have an upper hand in stock picking especially over the Algo/AI bots. FWIW, I do think based on previous stock market crashes (ie 2009) we may/could test the bottom again or see certain sectors sell off. My strategy is to continue to make small buys and try to average in some capital at/near these lows. I do see quite a few traders (not investors) taking their quick gains and that is working too. Thanks for the feedback. I am watching GBX w/ earnings tomorrow. Picked up a few shares Friday.
