The Importance of Portfolio Management

Effective portfolio management is crucial for investors, as frequent trading can significantly diminish returns. Research indicates that over a five-year period, those who traded frequently earned much lower returns than the market average. This is a pitfall that many investors fall into, often motivated by the desire to react quickly to market fluctuations. Adopting a disciplined approach by maintaining a long-term perspective can foster healthier investment habits and lead to better outcomes.
