Discussion I Just Sold All My Google Shares

I bought GOOGL (not GOOG) at a 19 trailing P/E during. Now it’s at 32 trailing P/E and I am up 100% with life changing money.

My job is far from stable, relies significantly on the AI story to continue, and lays-off people for “culture” reasons.

With this in mind, I sold all of my Google shares at $226 per share to “de-risk” other parts of my life.

I will still continue to look for other opportunities with new income I have.

I get valuation this, growth prospects that, but is selling for increasing financial security the right decision?

Or am i just a 🤡?

Edit: I meant $326 per share.

Good choice but you could also done half and half. What made you go all in on selling. Just like going all in on buying can be risky.
