Sell Stocks before Internship?

The bank I'm interning at has a no trade policy for summer interns. Should I sell off my portfolio before starting? It would suck for a second wave to hit and another crash to impact the market, with me being unable to sell my positions. Any recommendations? Thanks.

What are you holding that you would want to sell in a crash?

Most banks are fine with interns holding a portfolio as long as they're disclosed/no trading obviously. Just buy some longer term stuff and sit for a few months
