Investment success is not synonymous with infallibility. Rather, it comes about by doing more things right than wrong.
The success in your investment approach is as much a result of eliminating those things you can get wrong, which are many and perplexing (predicting markets, economies, and stock prices), as requiring you to get things right, which are few and simple (valuing a business).
When purchasing stocks, you should focus on two simple variables: the price of the business and its value. The price of the business can be found by looking up its quote. Determining value requires some calculation, but it is not beyond the ability of those willing to do some homework.
The wonderful thing is because you are no longer worry about the stock market, the economy, or predicting stock prices, you are now free to spend more time understanding your businesses.
More productive time can be spent reading annual reports and business and industry articles that will improve your knowledge as an owner. The degree to which you are willing to investigate your own business lessens your dependency on others who make a living advising people to take irrational action.
Ultimately, the best investment ideas will come from doing your own homework. You should not feel intimidated.
Determining how to allocate your savings is the most important decision you, as an investor, will make.
Keep INVESTING Simple and Safe (KISS) ****Investment Philosophy, Strategy and various Valuation Methods**** The same forces that bring risk into investing in the stock market also make possible the large gains many investors enjoy. It’s true that the fluctuations in the market make for losses as well as gains but if you have a proven strategy and stick with it over the long term you will be a winner!****Warren Buffett: Rule No. 1 - Never lose money. Rule No. 2 - Never forget Rule No. 1.
