3 Deadly Sins of Stock Market.

Have you ever think why new investors most of time failed in market.  ? Why only few make real money in stock market? What new person in stock market should do or should not do?  If yes I have answer to the root of this problem.

There 3 common mistakes that most investors do. I call them 3 Sins of Stock Market. 

1.Losing Money:

Most Investor knows this basic rule “Never Lose Money”. But still they end up losing money.  Because they keep holding the looser in hope of recovery. Simply say if you have purchased stock and it went down by 20%. And you wait as you not want to lose money. But this same stock has capability to go more 20% down. Not taking loses in market is biggest mistake most of investors do. Short term downside is normal, but if stock is going down for years or not moving for years then this is also one kind of loss as you are missing opportunity to allocate this money to some other good stock.  Remember there is no Successful investor who didn’t book loses. Taking lose is part of Journey and Investor must accept it.

      2. Buying Quantity then Quality:  

      Every new investor does this mistake.  They like buy 100 stocks of 10 over 1 stock of 1000.  Cost is same but he thinks he will get better chance with 100 stocks then 1. But in market price doesn’t matter.  In both case investment amount is 1000. And in both cases if stock goes up 10% you make 100 profits. So your buying decision should not be just on price factor. I have seen stock worth of 5000 in my career which I didn’t added because of price and same stock is now 22000 in 4 years and still going up. And I also seen stock which was 20 buck 4 years ago and still around 20 odd today also. Yes I am taking about Eicher Motors and Suzlon.

         3. Selling Winners:

       This is where successful investor standout form ordinary investor. Buy Right and Sit Tight. When you get stock which has shown potential to go up, you should not sell it for ordinary profit unless it’s really necessary. Stock which went up 50% has capability to go 100%. Smart Investor is one who adds stock on raise not on fall. Averaging should be done for stock which has shown its potential to go up not for stock which has shown its potential to go down.  Buy correct stock and let compounding do its magic.

     "To make money in stocks you must have the vision to see them, the courage to buy them   and         the patience to hold them. Patience is the rarest of the three." — Thomas Phelps

Learn To Earn: A Beginner’s Guide

Learn to Earn is book by Peter Lynch, one of the Best Fund Manager of all time. He has given a gift on knowledge of Investment in his book.  Unlike The Intelligent Investor, this book for beginner in Stock market.   Today I have completed it and find it quite good for someone to get basic clear.

Chapter one was on History of Capitalism and I didn’t find much interest while reading that. One can skip it if do not have interest on history

Second chapter the basic of investing was quite useful for readers. In this he explains very clearly how to invest in individual stocks and how to gather information about them. It details what a brokerage is, how it functions, why you may or may not want an expensive stockbroker, how to gather information about companies and decide whether to invest in them, what dividends are and how they work, and so on.

In one part Mr Lynch Mentioned:

“You many not triple your money in stock very often, but   you only need few triple in life time to build up a sizeable fortune. Here’s the math: If you start with $10000 and manage to triple it five times, you’ve got $2.4million, and if it ten times you’ve got $590million and 13 times, you’re the richest person in America”

In next chapter Mr Lynch has given information of how company’s life cycle works. At each stage of the company’s life, the risks and rewards of investing were different – it was a growing stock, a steady stock, a value stock, and a growth stock again at various points along the way. Lynch does a great job of explaining this relationship of a company to its stock, making the connection very clear.

And in last chapter he mentioned very important point about investing. Success of companies depends lot on Leadership. And what does that mean to the investor, or the person learning about personal finance? A great leader means you’ll have a valuable stock – a bad leader means you’ll have an under performing stock. Lynch puts a lot of value in this, and he provides a lot of interesting examples and evidence for the argument.

For someone who doesn’t know ABC of Investment, this book is good guide to start. You can get this book from any library or you can buy it for your personal collection from here:

The Warren Buffett Way

Appearing on the PBS show Money World in 1993, Buffett was asked what investment advice he would give a money manager just starting out.  “I’d tell him to do exactly what I did 40- odd year ago, which is to learn about every company in the United State that has publicly traded security. “

Moderator Adam Smith protested,  “But there’s 27,000 public companies”

“Well”, said Buffett, “start with the A’s “

Para above is from the book The Warren Buffett Way. One of the great book of Investment one can have on   his/her Library.  Though book talk about Mr Buffett Investment philosophy which might not suite to many Investors today still I believe the core idea display in book will help individual investor to look the business from eye of Mr Buffett.

We here try to highlight essence of book in few words:

Author has classified Mr Buffett all investment in four core principles:

1. Business
2. Management
3. Financial
4. Value

With above four principle you would find how Mr Buffett has discovered his greatest investments like Coco-Cola, Washington Post  , Gillette, Wells Fargo  etc. The idea of finding successful business is still applicable but after Mr. Buffett no such a great investor came who have applied it with such a ease.

Later part of book displays how to manage portfolio and psychology of money. Robert Hagstrom,the author , did true justice to the idea of Warren Buffett in the book. Writing book on such a topic is not easy. He had kept the thing simple that reader can connect with it. Get your copy today if you have not yet read it from here:   The Warren Buffett Way
