Collected Wisdom in investing

There have been many articles written about the rules of investing in the financial markets and the basics of them all center around 5 important concepts:

  1. Sell losing positions quickly
  2. Let winners continue to win – until they don’t any more.
  3. Never take on more risk than you can afford to lose.
  4. Always protect your capital investment by minimizing losses.
  5. Buy low and sell high.

The “risk” of loss of investment capital at the current time is outweighed by the potential for return.  – very true if you look at the last month or even the last 4 months…

I am not sure how low it will go but the news is not good and the outlooks worse.  Just thoughts from the trenches.  – WD0AJG
