Same here. Wonder how many people are being forced to HODL because of the tax ramifications of selling after huge gains? The other option is just to retire early in order to get into a lower tax bracket.

Taxation in my country on capital gains: if I sell now, gain is calculated from original purchase price and taxed at 34%. FIFO rules, so you can't choose which shares you sell.
BUT if hodl over 10 years, you can calculate gains by using 40% of current selling price as original purchase price.
This is called "hankintameno-olettama" and no, I have no idea howto translate to english.

But with large gains, you save a lot in taxes if holding over 10 years.
 
I didn’t except the stock split to cause the stock to go up this much. Oh wait, it hasn’t been split yet.

I didn’t expect Battery Day to cause the stock to go up this much. Oh wait, we didn’t have It yet.

I didn’t expect the S&P announcement to cause the stock to go up this much. Oh wait, it hasn’t been announced yet.

You didn't expect the buy the rumor, sell the news?
