We explore how to decide when to sell - even if a company is still performing - and why your personal goals matter more than market narratives. For new investors, Hui Leong shares how to build conviction, when to move beyond ETFs, and why patience must be balanced with action. It’s a conversation about clarity, not regret - hosted by Michelle Martin. See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
