Should I sell my XYZ stocks at a loss?

( www.reddit.com )

Should I sell my XYZ stocks at a loss? I bought 160 SQ stock (now XYZ) in 2021 for avg $230 a share. Brutal. In my TFSA (tax-free savings account). I’ve held and just can’t stand to see the $22,000 loss on my portfolio. It was a dumb move and I wasn’t paying attention. What would you do? Hold on and hope it goes up again? Sell and put it into VOO? Something else? What would you do? …

Stocks from late 80s/ early 90s So I found out recently my grandmother bought me some stocks in Ford Motor Company and Citigroup when I was born in 1989.

Question about stocks without dividends

( www.reddit.com )

Conversely, if it is not doing well, people would want to sell off their stock/not buy it in the first place, thus causing the price …
