Pardon me for jumping in for a somewaht different question--
I understand about timing the purchase (wait after the credit card just cycled, and purchase near the end of the month), but is there anything to the timing of the sell? If I buy this month by May 28, when is the earliest date/time I can sell?

These would have a date of May, so you could sell on Nov 1 (or later). If you sell then you would lose 3 months of interest, out of which 2 months is float to you, so effectively you'd lose 1 month of interest.
