Notes About Investment

Investors are taking unprecedented losses. Many of them are vulnerable to a single company or asset class. Driven by greed and fear, they buy high and sell low. They are heavily influenced by the media. At times like this, objective professional help is indispensable.

There are thousands of investment vehicles, from stocks to bonds, mutual funds and foreign exchange. Unfortunately, many people are attracted to investments after they have already increased substantially in price. After prices fall, they get discouraged and sell cheaply. It is a real challenge not to fall in this trap. That’s why you need the help of a professional financial advisor.


Knowing when to take profits and cut your losses is crucial. If the return on your investment is high, when is the best time to cash out? There’s no single answer. It depends on a number of factors.

It is a shame how investment gurus will encourage you to buy at tops. Investments in gold can be disastrous if too much money is paid. And gold does not pay interest or dividends. If you pay too much you could be stuck with losses for years. Stocks are tricky and difficult to trade profitably even in good times. That’s why you need seasoned advisors on your side.
