So I have been holding on all this time. I don't know much about stocks. I am a babe in the woods. I don't want to sell but am afraid to loose it all after the 22. My X says that I can't even sell the stock until after the 22. That is if they even go back on the market. Is he right? I can't sell? Then again you win some and loose some. Maybe after the 22 things will blossom. This is like a crap game. I never know when to walk away from the table.
