Selling opportunity or hold and pray? This company has disappointed and undeachieved so much for so long, and now it's spiked on no news or change (according to the company itself), it's tempting to cut one's long-term losses on what history suggests is a failing company. Except... "Maybe this time it's different." And "if I sell now and the breakthrough news or the sustainable turnaround comes next month or next year - with a doubled or tenfold valuation to match - I will kick myself to death." Who needs slot machines when you have companies like this?
