Can You Hold an Investment
for Too Long?
By www.ProfitableInvestingTips.com
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
A recent article from The Motley
Fool about 3 stocks to buy and
never sell got us thinking.

The three stocks they mention
are Walt Disney, Amazon.com
and Activision Blizzard.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
Each is a strong brand in its
respective market.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
We wrote recently about how
many years are required to
make an investment long term.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
Just how many years are
required to make an investment
long term?
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
We can get a hint from the so-
called Oracle of Omaha who says
that he cannot outguess the
market in the short term but has a
pretty good idea of what will sell
well ten years hence.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
So, you need to stay in the
market for longer than 5 years
and perhaps even longer than 10
years to see the benefits of long
term investing.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
The point is that it can very hard
to outguess the market, so you
often need a decade or more in a
stock to see the best benefits.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
But, can you hold an investment
for too long?
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
When a Business Model
Becomes Outdated
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
Eastman Kodak was founded in
1888 and prospered for decades
as the inventor of the personal
camera and maker of film.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
Although Kodak had a chemical
division its success was based on
the fact that in order to have a
photograph of something you
needed film.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
Then the digital era arrived and
the Kodak business model was
outdated.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
A stock that grew in value year
after year and provided dividends
year after year filed for
bankruptcy protection in 2012.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
In the case of Kodak the issue
was the business model that was
great for years and then
antiquated.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
Yes, you can hold an investment
for too long if you don’t pay
attention to whether or not the
business model for the company
provides strong intrinsic stock
value.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
An inherent weakness in this
concept is that too often the
medium and long term prospects
of a company and its stock price
are not clear.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
So, what is intrinsic stock value of
a company if the future is
uncertain?
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
The ability to see into the future
to see how well a company will
manage its assets, products,
costs, R&D, and marketing is of
utmost importance in calculating
intrinsic stock value as a means
of deciding whether or not to
purchase a stock.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
When The Motley Fool suggests
Disney, Amazon and Activision
blizzard as stocks you never want
to sell make sure to think of
Kodak or for that matter the
whale oil business or prosperous
carriage and saddle makers of
the 19th century.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
Clorox and Building on
Core Competence
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
Clorox Corporation has been
around for over a century.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
It started by making bleach, liquid
chlorine which still accounts for
12 percent of its revenue.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
However the company has added
other cleaning products as well
as water filtration equipment and
filters.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
All of their products revolve
around keeping things clean and
keeping the consumer happy.
http://profitableinvestingtips.com/stock-investing/can-you-hold-an-investment-for-too-long
So long as this business model
works the stock is one that you
cannot hold for too long.
