<prompt> Human: Sorry for the text wall. Lots of factors to account for.The company I work for has a 401k match 75 up to 8 of pay that pays your match in common Company stock. Its a rather large employer Fortune 100. The vesting schedule is 0 vested until youve been there 3 years. Then you become 100 vested. You cant move any of the match out of those shares until youre vested. Im vested in April.Because of the nature of how the match goes in, my 401k is nearly 40 company stock currently that I cant move until April. The plus side is its been doing very well Im up 20 this year alone and it was 14 last year because of this.A big shakeup has been announced publicly that there will be a spinoff of major divisions, in theory, boosting shareholder value. Historically, when my company has had spin offs, you receive a number of shares in the new company that is based on your current holding in the main company.Heres the question.When it comes to April timeframe, would it be better to reallocate as quickly as possible into an index fund, OR would waiting for the inevitable spike and potential share boost from the spinoff couple more months be more beneficial long term? I know having such a large tied up in one company is a frowned upon option generally.Im quite young still mid 20s so I feel like time is on my side. A quick 10,000 potential boost with another 30 years of moderate returns could be absolutely huge.  <response>: Every time Ive ever heard anyone swear that their management promised the stock price will go up, it went down. If they actually knew, theyd shut up because insider trading is a serious crime. For an example, exactly 2 years ago Walgreens offered to buy RiteAid for 9share. It was a sure thing. Then FTC regulatory delays and renegotiation and more delays and finally it was a sure thing at 6share. Then another delay and Walgreens said Fuck it and backed out. Rite aid is now 1.70. My dad was a lower level executive and his VP kept making promises and my dad ended up losing a fuckton of cash. Luckily I had been burned by my own company a few years previous so I never bought in and continually reminded my dad not to go all in. In the end he didnt lose as much as he could have. You can take the risk and it might pay off. But smart investing is to diversify as soon as you can. Only gamble with money you are willing to lose.
