When you buy a stock, you are in effect “lending” the company money to do what they do: hire new people, make more product, promote what they do, things like that.. And they will pay you back with dividends sometimes. Sometimes the only thing you gain by giving them money is an increase in the stock price, which relies on others wanting to buy the stock more than owners of the stock want to sell it, which drives up the price per share. And if the price is higher when you sell it, then you get your money back plus the gain that the price per share conferred upon you.
I am presuming that you are asking when it comes time that you choose or must sell the stock, will the price per share will be better than the price you paid?
One way the stock price might go up is because the company is doing really well, doing what it does well. I see the company and the company’s financial condition as the 7th and 8th respectively.
The stock price can also go up just because the buzz is that folks like the stock or want to own the stock, neither of which necessarily has to do with anything the company is actually doing. I see this really crucial factor in stock price, the public, as the 10th house ruled by Mars.
You and your monies are the Sun.

I see you and your expectation of this matter exaggerated, thinking it may be better than it may actually be, maybe caught up in the hype about it as so often happens in the stock market and other markets as well. This is indicated by Sun in its exaltation.
The company and its financial condition is peregrine Saturn, so neither good nor bad, middling, mediocre. So there seems no particular promise of profit from anything the company does or is.
Looking at probably the most influential factor on the increase in stock price as an avenue to profit for you, we consider the public because at least theoretically they are the ones, like you, who may buy the stocks and drive the price up or sell off and bring the price down, depending upon the combination of the buy/sell forces at a particular time.
In this instance, the public is signified by ruler of the 10th, Mars. Mars is in its fall so without much power to act and in the unfavorable 12th. And Mars separates from Saturn and receives it poorly by detriment This suggests that the public doesn’t like the company/stock and is not gravitating toward it. If this is so, then I don’t think we can look to the pubic to help drive up the demand and, thus, the price by having demand for the stock exceed those who are selling it off.
The company and its financial standing are average, middling. And those who could help raise the price for you to make a profit don’t seem to have much power to act, or perhaps have undone themselves somehow. You as Sun are disjunct Saturn, being one sign apart and so not aspecting. Being disjunct points to neither of you genuinely see or understand the other.
Moon’s next aspect as the unfolding of the question is a challenging square.
I am not seeing a lot that points to your making a profit with this stock.
