Active Investing combines fundamental and technical analysis into a totally new way of looking at the stock market.

Active Investors manage their assets and trade shares

We must be able to differentiate between our assets and the shares that are our stock in trade. Failure to do this is as foolish as trying to sell t-products in an e-store. I have seen portfolios where crashed dot-com stocks have been conveniently moved across into the asset column. Yet they don't even come close to being income-producing, lifetime assets.

The bottom line is that we have to treat these shares like a shopkeeper would treat his dead stock - mark them down and get rid of them.
