Indeed! 400% gain in over a year for this Canadian company

The first stock I ever bought was Silver Wheaton. Now called Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. I read about them in moneysense magazine so I opened a brokerage account and bought $500 worth of the stock. 6 months later my $500 was down to $350, so I sold and withdrew my money. Haha

The stock has gone up over 10x since I bought it over 20 years ago. Haha

Good lesson though.

Wow!! Yeah that is what I am hoping to do buy and hold 20+ years

That's the mindset you have to have. If you believe in a stock and think you are getting a fair value for it don't sell it. It's ok to trim and add around the edges if you feel the need to try and time the market but I wouldn't do that with more than 20% of a position. Just hold it. If your thesis changes then sell it and move on to something else.
