Hastiness Can Be a Liability

Always carefully weigh factors before making an investing decision.

Navigating Rough Times

7/25/2016

Look Past Entertainment

Risking Assets Just to Get a Return at All

7/13/2016

 
Once upon a time if you wanted to get a risk free return on your investment, you put cash in a savings account. If you wanted a superior return, you risked at least part of your cash in the stock, bond, and/or commodities market for a shot at superior returns.

Now, in this low to negative interest rate environment, you get almost no risk free return or even have to PAY to keep your savings safe. Increasingly, you need to risk at least part of your cash just for the potential of a return at all.

Beware of Bubbles

7/12/2016

 
Record low interest rates translate into stock bubbles as investors seek a decent return on their investment. This means that some companies will trade at excessive valuations even though fundamentals may be stagnant or eroding. Do your research before investing and make sure that valuations aren’t too excessive. Also, it may pay to keep some cash on hand to invest during any potential corrections.
