"You don't have to make it back the way that you lost it."
Financial investor Warren Buffett encourages us not to cling to our losing efforts or chase what isn't working and instead focus on the next best action Source: 1994 Berkshire Hathaway shareholder letter Especially not now. We just exited geopolitical uncertainty. The bull market is opening. And if you're still holding losers, you're leaving gains on the table. When fear dominated — Iran tensions, recession chatter — many positions got crushed regardless of thesis. Now that volatility is settling, capital is rotating hard into growth. This is the reset moment. Here's the trap: holding a 30% loser while the broader market rebounds 15% feels like a recovery story. It's not. You're still underwater and you're missing the move. The smarter play: - Accept the loss. Cut it loose. - Redeploy into high-conviction leveraged plays — QLD, other 2x,3x if you're bullish on tech/AI. - Let leveraged positions do the heavy lifting in a bull market. You don't recover by waiting. You recover by positioning for what's next. I used to think selling a loser meant admitting defeat. This is sunk cost bias! Then I realized: the best investors aren't afraid to harvest losses and rotate into the next big theme. That's how you actually make it back — faster, smarter, and better. What's one losing position you're holding that could be redeployed into a leveraged play you actually believe in?
