You also should have learned some of the key rules of investing. Follow them, and the benefits will last a lifetime. Cut Losses. This lesson can't be overstressed. After you buy a stock, sell if it falls 7% to 8% below your purchase price. Follow this rule religiously, and no one bad trade will ever smash your nest egg. When top growth investors take a position, the first thing that comes to mind is reducing risk when things don't work out. "Only the humble survive," said hedge fund manager Jim Whitner in "The Best: TradingMarkets.com Conversations With Top Traders."

I think it's interesting they always like to use the "Tulip Bulb" comparison to bloated prices.
I do think you all would find it more interesting. During the first winter during the Alaska gold rush. An ounce of salt sold for an ounce of gold. Not that it especially means anything besides supply and demand.
