Nvidia just keeps going up and wishing I'd bought in a month ago. But it still feels like there is going to be a big dip at some point.
Trump threatening crazy high tariffs against anyone trading with Russia might do it. Not many countries there to care too much about, but that's going to hit China again.

Up over 4.6% in the pre market.
Resuming chip sales to China will do that.

For now, but I think it's to rich to buy in at the moment.

Trumps changed his mind on tariffs so many times that the markets barely even react anymore.

Just leave it. Why bother doing anything....
Cash out? - When do you reinvest? Next week, next month?
Potentially, yes. With the idiot in the White House, there's plenty of opportunity to trade the volatility. I've been in and out several stocks taking advantage of large moves. Buy the fear, sell the greed.

My view is that if you might want the money in the next 12 months or so, it is a good time to cash out, if you managed to buy the trump dip.
If it’s long term money, just leave it. I’m probably doing a house move next year so I’m happy banking profits when the opportunity presents itself and I think things are veering into greed territory.
I’m hoping for the next few days to smile on me. I’ve a bit in Taiwan Semi Conductors and they post their earnings on Thursday so hoping for a nice bump. Will then cash out and get a bit more in Applovin.
Applovin post their earnings early Aug and looking for a similar result.
I rinse and repeat this taking a profit when the shares rise between 10 and 20% then reinvest.
Each time I get to £2500 I’ll buy £2500 of an ETF in my ISA for long term investment.
I fund this with £300 each month and although I’ve not been doing this for too long its working for me at moment.

surely you shouldn't be putting in house funds into the market at any time.... my savings just took a massive hit as I had to get a new (to me) car with funds that was just sitting in a savings account that I had there for about the last 5 years waiting on my car to die.
Depends on your risk profile really. I own a house already so it's not my FTB fund, more a 'how much of an upgrade when we move' fund, and I am prepared to take some risks to maximise that amount. So when I do get good win, I'm happy to bank it. I wouldn't have had that money in AMD if there hadn't been the Trump liberation day plunge which presented an opportunity.
Also, I believe there is going to be serious civil unrest, breakdown even, in the US before Trump's term is out, which will trigger a much bigger correction than we've seen so far.

This is what I'm doing with a little bit else where for a bit more of a gain but not anything serious money. It's not much but I'm up about 8% since I started a few months ago
Just bear in mind that once out of ISA protection it can't go back in without eating more of your yearly allowance. Unless your leaving it as cash in the ISA of course.
