What is the price of your Trust?

As a trader or maybe as an investor, you just have 

to ask this question on every stock.

In any relationship, you cannot fully have faith in someone if they

 have not proven themselves to you over time. Friends and family
 can vouch for people, but that doesn't automatically merit trust.

It's the same with stocks. 

Now let me introduce you to Bob and his journey with SSI. 

(Since a lot of people are dying for an opinion on this stuck)

Bob is the average trader who was able to get some SSI at IPO

 price and is currently holding for long term because according 
to his broker, his guru, family and friends,

"Maganda fundamentals netoh! Bagger!" 

Literally.

Sometimes I wonder what Bob's definition is and what his
 parameters are when he says "Long Term." 
He should think about it. 

Here's the rest of the story...

Actions speak louder than words. We all agree on this one right?

If they say SSI has excellent fundamentals and that there's 

nothing wrong with it, then why is the price action 

telling another story?

But what Bob doesn't realize is that he unfortunately put his 
trust in people, which is very hard to quantify and not on the stock's
 (SSI) price. This is also the very reason why he refuses to cut. 

If SSI was a person, you'd probably execute or bitch 
slap the hell out of him or her. Nobody likes a lying bastard.

So if ever you find yourself being betrayed by the price 
action of your beloved stock, better ask yourself,

"What is the price of my Trust?"

Do yourself a favor and don't be a martyr like Bob.
