Generally, stocks are a long-term investment, but there are times when you shouldÂ consider selling them.
Here are a few:
The stock doesn't fit your goals.Â When the stock no longer meets your financial needs, it may be time to let it go.
You find better alternatives.Â A change in the fundamentals of an investment can make other investment options more attractive.
It's time to rebalance your portfolio.Â Reviewing and rebalancing your portfolio ensures that your asset mix matches your risk tolerance.
You need a tax break. You can use an investment loss to offset capital gains in another.
