Theoretically, one could ensure that they never lost money in the market simply by choosing never to sell.

That's not a theory, it's a fact. Obviously not with one stock but even in a mildly diversified portfolio you would in fact never have lost a dime (including those who bought on October 23, 1929 the day before Black Thursday) had you never sold a share. If you don't think CPQ is going to recover then by all means bail, I think you'll be kicking yourself later on as so often happens in these situations.
