Negative + Time + Independence
3 broad Timeless Investing Principles which have bode well for me:
1. Howard Marks, one of the investing legends said: Investing is a negative art, if you are able to filter or exclude the ones which you don’t wont in your portfolio, what would be left would be good or great.
2. Time plays a very important factor in investing What I mean is NOT timing, i.e. trying to time the market, but time duration or waiting period. If the investment were to be held for a long-term, despite some oscillations along the way, it becomes friend of a good business.
3. “Suno sabki, karo apni“- Listen to all, however, do you own homework. While I may listen/read about what other investors are betting on, I always conduct my own independent research in individual stocks or industries before making any decision.
Disclaimer: Please note that these are my personal views. While I am NOT a registered Research Analyst as per SEBI (Research Analyst) Regulations, 2014. All investors are advised to conduct their own independent research into individual stocks or industries before making any decision. In addition, investors are advised that past stock performance is not indicative of future price action.
