In a very recent interview, super-investor Bill Ackman was asked: what are the red flags for you to decide to sell a company, even at a loss? Ackman had two main points to his answer, but also answered in a good amount of detail. He used his recent sale of Netflix as an example, after only owning the stock for a few months, which is unusual for him. His second point came in the form of some advice for retail investors about when to sell a stock, using Tesla as his hypothetical example.
