Alliance Research -10 Golden Rules of Investing In Stock Markets 26 Dec 2015

10 Golden Rules of Investing In Stock Markets 

The lure of big money has always thrown investors into the lap of stock markets. However, making money in equities is not easy. It not only requires oodles of patience and discipline, but also a great deal of research and a sound understanding of the market, among others.
Added to this is the fact that stock market volatility in the last few years has left investors in a state of confusion. They are in a dilemma whether to invest, hold or sell in such a scenario.

                           

Although no sure-shot formula has yet been discovered for success in stock markets, here are some golden rules which, if followed prudently, may increase your chances of getting a good return:

1. Avoid the herd mentality : The typical buyer’s decision is usually heavily influenced by the actions of his acquaintances, neighbors or relatives. Thus, if everybody around is investing in a particular stock, the tendency for potential investors is to do the same. But this strategy is bound to backfire in the long run.
2. Take informed decision : Proper research should always be undertaken before investing in stocks. But that is rarely done. Investors generally go by the name of a company or the industry they belong to. This is, however, not the right way of putting one’s money into the stock market.
3. Invest in business you understand : Never invest in a stock. Invest in a business instead. And invest in a business you understand. In other words, before investing in a company, you should know what business the company is in.
4. Don’t try to time the market : One thing that even Warren Buffett doesn’t do is to try to time the stock market, although he does have a very strong view on the price levels appropriate to individual shares. A majority of investors, however, do just the opposite, something that financial planners have always been warning them to avoid, and thus lose their hard-earned money in the process.
5. Follow a disciplined investment approach : Historically it has been witnessed that even great bull runs have shown bouts of panic moments. The volatility witnessed in the markets has inevitably made investors lose money despite the great bull runs.
6. Do not let emotions cloud your judgement : Many investors have been losing money in stock markets due to their inability to control emotions, particularly fear and greed.
7. Create a broad portfolio : Diversification of portfolio across asset classes and instruments is the key factor to earn optimum returns on investments with minimum risk.
8. Have realistic expectations : There’s nothing wrong with hoping for the ‘best’ from your investments, but you could be heading for trouble if your financial goals are based on unrealistic assumptions.
9. Invest only your surplus fund : If you want to take risk in a volatile market like this, then see whether you have surplus funds which you can afford to lose.
10. Monitor rigorously : We are living in a global village. Any important event happening in any part of the world has an impact on our financial markets. Hence we need to constantly monitor our portfolio and keep affecting the desired changes in it.
