Point 2: if you have losses from other trades this year or from previous years, you can cover those losses and don’t pay any tax.

Other than this, I don’t see big advantage in selling.

If u want to get rid of stock for fundamentals or other reasons, thats a diff topic

I am trying to understand the rationale of the people who sell stocks to book profits-
Day Trading: I totally understand this scenario because they sell the stocks by end the day or 2 days to get profit.

My question is for the sellers of the below scenario
Book the profit now and buy later when the stock price comes down: If you sell an AAPL stock now, you have to pay tax 20% to 40% depends up on the period of holding(both Federal and state). Unless the price of the stock falls below this percentage, whats the point of selling the stock? Am I missing anything here?
