This is the total opposite of nonsense. It could well be unequivocal fact sir. Unless you have all your money in cash (and enjoy losing 8% a year guaranteed burn). Whether or not you 'have the money' - that blunder could essentially be equivalent to someone taking 10-15k usd out of your account. The two outcomes are the same, but the means different.[/QUOTE]
To play devil's advocate with you, with the market in a downtrend, it could just as easily lead to you selling stock at a higher point and buying back lower. In the short term, whether it is a positive or negative pretty much amounts to a coin flip. If it benefitted the person, should they let their sale associate know and leave them a nice tip for the blunder?
