Take Profits When You Can

So just took my profits on Tesla today because of several reasons:

• The 20 period moving average crossed the 50 period moving average
• It’s the beginning of May and people usually “sell in May and go away”
• The stock is starting to get overbought on the slow stochastics

I’m going to wait for the pullback and get back in because I know this stock is going to go higher.  As I said before when you invest in Tesla you are investing in more than just a company you are investing in Elon Musk’s vision.  He is a tenacious owner and he has a way of surviving situations that is commendable.  As they say the best indicator of future behavior is past behavior and his ability to build his businesses and grow them amidst a chorus of naysayers bodes well for the future of Tesla.
