Don't Keep A Loser Investment

Have a stock that hasn't performed well.  Don't keep it just because you are losing money.  And if the fundamentals have changed, don't hesitate to sell the stock immediately.  Some investments will never fare well and if you think you may have one, get rid of it.  The money invested in it can be used to buy something else with more potential.
