Two weeks ago about I bought 500 shares of BABA at $95.71 and 350 shares of GPRO at $67.91. Today they are trading at $101.67 and $83.02 respectively.

BABA reports their 1st quarterly earnings since its IPO tomorrow.

Last week, GPRO reported earnings of $0.12 vs. expectations of $.08. Holiday sales are predicted to be very good.

Ideas on should I take my earnings and re-buy or hold on to stocks?

If the price is going to go up, don't sell.

$11,000 in 2 weeks isn't bad

If you're after short term gains, exit at 25-30% (at least that's what I read).

Have you been watching GPROs stock price?

I'd hold the shite out of the BABA. GPRO makes no sense to me. You're on your own there.
