My War Room (7) - The Lost Years!

Read? My War Room (6) - The Lost Years




Finally, after 3.5 years it touches the same peak portfolio value level as on 11 Oct 2007 for the first time @ today closing.

3.5 years has been wasted - the lost years!

Is buy-and-hold dead?

Anyone?

    Buy-and-Hold not dead.

    Buy-and-hold works when buy at low prices with high dividends like what Warren Buffet does.

    For normal Joe, those parts of portfolio which meet this criteria can buy and hold.

    For the rest of the portfolio, best to have trailing stop loss - still buy-and-hold but sell with profit when start dropping. Then use the cash to buy again when valuations are back to good value.
