๐๐๐Chase Hot Trend vs Making Solid Investment๐๐๐
๐๐๐While chasing hot trend seems exciting, but it is a high risk /high reward kind of investing! The thing is we never know when the hot trend will dissipate and becomes passe. It is a FOMO mentality but market sentiments are unpredictable and we maybe left with staggering losses.
A good example would be Meme stocks like $GameStop(GME)$ or $Bed Bath & Beyond(BBBY)$ . To me it is like going to the casino - too risky and perhaps lots of sleepless nights.
I would definitely prefer making a solid investment by buying quality stocks that tick all the core fundamentals of profitability, rock solid balance sheet, preferably with a wide moat and excellent management. My favourites are $Apple(AAPL)$ $Microsoft(MSFT)$ and $Amazon.com(AMZN)$ My style is definitely a Buy and Hold with a long term horizon. It is a slow and steady kind of investing, perhaps somewhat boring. It will allow the magic of compounding to happen over the years.
That's what Warren Buffett did and that's why he is the Father of Value Investing and a billionaire as well. In investing, time and patience are important to reap bountiful harvest in the future. Investing is definitely not a sprint but a marathon for it is time in the market that counts, not timing the market!๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฐ
