When a Stock is like a family pet

It’s easy to fall in love with a position that has produced big paper profits for you. Once you learn how to buy extreme bargains during times of crisis, you’re bound to have some massive 100%+ winners in your portfolio.

It’s easy to fall in love with a stock that doubles or triples in value. Seeing it in your portfolio will make you feel good. The winning stock can become like the family pet.

And who wants to sell the family pet?

Trust me… you do.

Extremely cyclical assets like commodities and natural resource stocks should be approached with a “rent, don’t own” mentality. You must be willing to sell these assets after they appreciate in value. It’s only a matter of time before they bust again.

Remember, you don’t make money until you sell. Your “pet” is just a piece of paper. Don’t fall in love with it. It won’t love you back.
