What do you guys think. My plan is to sell 100 shares of Ford and I'm thinking I can sell it in lots. So I have shares that I've made some profit on over the years, ranging between $7 - $11 and it's all long-term gains. I was thinking about selling that and retaining the shares that are still in negative territory. Shares that were purchased in the $14-$20 range. I don't really need the loss and I'd rather take some of my wins and invest them in other companies. Bad plan? Good plan?

It's not leaps and bounds of profit but Ford is kind of a disaster these days. My thought is the rolling into another car company. The parent of fiat, ram, jeep, blah blah blah. I have some shares of them already and while I wish I bought them when they were at $15 they have a dividend and everyone loves the ram truck and Stellanis vehicle are everywhere in Europe.

They certainly don't seem to be breaking out of the $12 range. That little blip in 2022 was the first time they were above $20 (not counting an earlier split) since late 2001, so it may not be worth your while to hold the losses either.

A good point. Ford can't get out of it's own way these days. And that EV truck was about as stupid as could be.
