Re:[ That cheat sheet is a reminder to me to cut losses short (10% below the cost basis), not to box myself in with 20%, 30% or more in losses.]

Thanks for the reminder!

I decided to cut my losses with TPL (-18.8%) and LB (-13.9%) in my Growth IRA. I bought both at too high a price, and they’ve basically moved backward ever since.

They’re thinly traded, which hasn’t helped, and I let the losses get larger than I should have. Some valuation tools show them as still over 30% overvalued—TPL in particular looks about 70% overvalued at the current price.

Time to move on and redeploy the capital more productively.
