Refusing to Sell

Definition

“Refusing to sell” describes a market behavior where holders of an asset choose not to liquidate their positions, even in the face of declining prices or market uncertainty. This stance reflects strong conviction in the asset’s long-term value or a belief that current prices are undervalued. It can contribute to a reduction in selling pressure, potentially stabilizing prices or slowing a downturn. This behavior is often associated with long-term investors or community members.
