But really bad investments should be rare.  So consider, for a moment, the misfortune of Murray Cod Australia Limited (ASX:MCA) investors who have held the stock for three years as it declined a whopping 76%.  That'd be enough to cause even the strongest minds some disquiet.    And the ride hasn't got any smoother in recent times over the last year, with the price 27% lower in that time.     The falls have accelerated recently, with the share price down 29% in the last three months.      Since Murray Cod Australia has shed AU$11m from its value in the past 7 days, let's see if the longer term decline has been driven by the business' economics.   Check out our latest analysis for Murray Cod Australia   Murray Cod Australia isn't currently profitable, so most analysts would look to revenue growth to get an idea of how fast the underlying business is growing.  When a company doesn't make profits, we'd generally hope to see good revenue growth.  Some companies are willing to postpone profitability to grow revenue faster, but in that case one would hope for good top-line growth to make up for the lack of earnings.   Over three years, Murray Cod Australia grew revenue at 11% per year.   That's a fairly respectable growth rate.   So it seems unlikely the 21% share price drop (each year) is entirely about the revenue.  It could be that the losses were much larger than expected.  This is exactly why investors need to diversify - even when a loss making company grows revenue, it can fail to deliver for shareholders.       The graphic below depicts how earnings and revenue have changed over time (unveil the exact values by clicking on the image).

However, keep in mind that even the best stocks will sometimes underperform the market over a twelve month period.     Regrettably, last year's performance caps off a bad run, with the shareholders facing a total loss of 6% per year over five years.  We realise that Baron Rothschild has said investors should \"buy when there is blood on the streets\", but we caution that investors should first be sure they are buying a high quality business.
