Investing in stocks is like investing in business. According to successful market investors, if someone is convinced about the business model of the company and sustained business growth of the sector it belongs, one should try and hold a company's stock as long as one can because money is not in buying and selling of stocks. Real money is in holding the stock as long as one can.
