Episode notes
Prefer Owning Over Trading
- Do own individual stocks for the long term rather than trading frequently.
- Let the power of compounding and holding great companies drive multi-year gains.
Opening Rallies Can Be Overpriced
- Market-moving news can create immediate spikes but usually reflects multi-year outcomes, not quick profits.
- Buying at euphoric opens often leaves you with overinflated prices and poor entry returns.
Buy Where Openings Let You Enter Low
- Do look for stocks that opened neutrally or down to find low-entry opportunities like banks.
- Focus on valuation metrics, especially price-to-earnings, to identify bargains.
