Q: Still hung up on sell or hold GSY. At 35$ I am down 70%. I know 5I always seems to suggest that not to redeploy cash from taking a loss as a means to make up for the loss.I do not quite get that. Could you explain .Regardless if I choose to sell do you think at today's price of 4.75$ that ZDC would provide more hope for me to recover or a better alternative .Much appreciated .Larry

5i Research Answer:

Having some occasional large loss positions (blow-ups) is usual in investing, and investors should not fuss too much about mistakes, but instead focus on taking the lesson and moving forward. The psychology of trying to “make it back” is very human and understandable after a large loss, but pursuing it too aggressively could also be detrimental to long-term wealth, as it leads investors to invest in riskier situations just to try to recover losses. In investing, investors don’t have to make it back the way they lost it, but should instead try to stay rational and consistent.

On the other hand, ZDC is a promising growth name that we like given the business momentum. The company is expected to grow strongly over the next few years (above 50% on average). With that said, a large part of that growth is also priced into the valuation. If growth can be sustained and surprise investors on the upside, we think ZDC has room to grow further. Overall, we think a redeployment of capital from GSY to ZDC could make sense at this point.
