 Whenever you take a decision of investing in to a stock, try to scrutinize
the life cycle of the stock’s performance and judge it against your entry
timing into buying the stock. If you have invested in stock that as
achieved its life time highs and has started to show the sign of coming
down from the peak, you should probably exit from the position in such
stock as it may keep coming down to unfavorable levels for your
portfolio. Hence, it is very important that you analyze the time of entry
and exit into any stock investment.
 It is a wide stretch falsehood that equity investment is a short term
investment plan. Though it can be true when markets are at all time high
levels, it is still held good that equity investment is not a short term
investment plan, it requires time and the patience to stay invested and
one cannot reap true benefits of equity investment in short term.
