The problem is that would lock your money and prevent you using it for other stocks for maybe a very long time. Small loss now and better potential gains with that money in other stocks is more optimal.
I really dont like having to sell my stock on this as its pushing the price down to an unreasonable level when it was already on the low side but the lack of serious interest from anybody else means ive got static money in this stock and its just not worth it. So i sell at a small loss even though i know that it should be valued alot higher :(.
what are peoples thoughts on this stock? personally i think its very undervalued (hence why im long on it) considering that we know that accross all platforms its already sold over 7million copies worldwide as of Jan 1st and its still performing reasonably well in the charts.
across all platforms you have to be looking in the region of 10million GLS and at this price the ps3 isnt going to see a quarter of them. considering pc sales are fairly dismal , lets assume it takes 10% (imo a high estimate), thats leaves 90% or 9million between the ps3 and 360. the current price means the 360 is going to roughly outsell it 3:1. remember this is global figures where in europe its sold alot and the ratio is typically much closer to 1:1. i think a figure closer to the truth would be around 2:1 meaning theres at least 3million in sales for the ps3. what views do other people have?
so the pc version is valued at 160dkp, the 360 version is 730dkp and yet the ps3 version is only valued at 270dkp, that means out of a total of 11.6million sales the ps3 is only going to get a quarter of them based on these values.
