My XOM is up over 50% since I bought it last December. ($40-$67)

I'm up a bundle on USO but it might be time to sell my investment and
hold the profit.

That is always a question. Sell it within a year and pay the taxes or
hold it a year and not pay taxes. (We are usually under the cap).

Always a question when to sell. I have XOM at 30. Unfortunately, I did
not sell at the highs.

If you have a stock with a decent dividend, it does take some of the
sting out of missing a peak. I am just mad I was asleep at the switch
on CLNE. I had the chance for a double and I wasn't paying attention.
I may be back in the red again. I am not sure what happened a couple
of months ago.

Then the only question is what the up side potential is. If it is
done, pick a good price and put in a sell order. If you are not to
greedy it should trade. For little guys like us all we need is a few
minutes of irrational exuberance we can tag along for. Warren Buffett
trying to dump 100,000 shares could bend the market.

Based on past performance, there is a huge upside.Â* It's in an IRA so I
can play with it without any tax implications.Â* It's an odd "stock".
