Judy, I learned that you can not be concerned about taxes when a good time to sell a stock emerges... I'd rather pay taxes than hold on and loose even more later as it goes down.... But if you sell, pay your 20% capital gain tax, you can buy at over 50% lower in price later sometimes... So you are really gaining 30% in profits. Then when it goes back up a couple months later, back up 50% plus the 30% gain, you just made 80% at the same price it was before (after taxes)...
