I appreciate your post and your position. If it's of any help, when I sell for a loss, I don't see it as a loss. I see it as moving capital to where it will (may) grow more quickly, or at least where the available evidence supports greater potential. The hope I have in such a move is a return that covers the 'loss' (cost of the move) and then some. There's only so much capital and sometimes you have to play checkers rather than chess with it. Best to you and hope all your moves are good ones.
