Lou on Capital PreservationFrom the stock of the day question:
Preservation of capital is one of the most important objectives in asset management. It's too bad you didn't book the profits that were there for you but that's water under the bridge.
The fact that you are asking whether you should sell tells me you want to and as I have advised many investors if you want to sell, do it! You can always get back in at another point where at least your preserved capital will buy you more shares.
