From 1980 to 2014, a JP Morgan study found:
40% of stocks lose money
64% of stocks underperform
~7% of stocks accounted for nearly ALL of the gains
One reason indexing investing works so well is all of this chaos is invisible\

...so in US despite stock indices continue making new highs, 40% of stocks actually lost value over time!
...Surprised?
....the indices were only going higher over a longer time largely by only 7% of stocks!
....which means most businesses lost their way over time.
....such is the peril of holding onto an individual stock thinking you are Warren Buffett, lol.
Buy and Hold for longer does not always provide holders a better return nor recovery they expected- these examples of some of once well regarded stocks continued to see value destruction and at best stock price growth stalling after early rises.
