A lot of investors, including myself, hold stocks for the long term. But I've now encountered that it's quite a different time horizon for everyone. Some people hold long term for 5 years, some for 10 years and some for 30+ years.
I pomentally held my first stock the longest and now it's 11 years and I'll easily add another 20 and probably more to that.
How about you?

They have been investing for less than a year and the shares I hold all the time are maybe three of the former 20+ shares now that I have reduced it to about 12, but the less I have the more confident I am that it is again for a longer period of time of course there are exceptions that at some price I would sell some. 🙂 But the vast majority are for a few years let's say min. 5 years.
20+ shares is a lot, I have 18 and I think it's better to have 12 and hold and not have to think about it at all :)
So for me the basis of longevity is the time test. After that, I will judge whether to hold on or go for something more promising and risky but again for at least three years, or on the contrary, safer for which I then assume an even longer-term hold - forever 😂
The time test is the basis, I wouldn't want to pay tax on it. Holding it forever is actually an inheritance for the kids:D
Wow, I'm just thinking of pitching a similar discussion here now too, just with when one would have an opinion on profit taking. ...Anyway, on your topic, I've only been investing in stocks for about a year and a half, so that's my longest holding as well, and I intend to hold something for longer, maybe 20 years as you write. Of course I also sometimes buy something that I only hold for a while, be it a week, a month, a quarter and then sell again at a profit.
