CW,
ReplyDeleteYou should thank me!
If not how you get the free kopi?
LOL!
If investing were easy, who would pay $3000 for a workshop?
If markets were crystal and not confusing, how come no guru who pocketed the $3000 never offer a money back guarantee?
If investing were easy, how come the majority of CPF members who bought and hold using CPIS are still under water despite STI now is no where near bear market territory?
The earlier your reader discover the below the better!
"The market is not your mother. It consists of tough men and women who look for ways to take money away from you instead of pouring milk into your mouth." - Dr. Alexander Elder
Tough men and women will tell bei kambings investing is easy and not confusing :)
Alamak.. scratch head..
DeleteErrr SMOL .... majority of CPFIS members who bought and *hold* have profits.
DeleteThose who bought and *sold* mostly have losses. Guess which statistic gahmen using from now on?? Hohoho!!!
But ya lorr .... so many bloggers & so many different viewpoints ... I also blur!! Kekeke!!!
Don't worry next time we will all have our own robot fund managers ... Look Ma!! No brains needed!! (unless you think that the robot is not learning fast enough & you want to hack the algorithm...)

Spur,
DeleteThose who lost money under CPIS include those who panic sell at the lows AND those who held on to lemons and salted fishes ;)
Those who bought rubber balls will of course sing the praises of buy and hold - I would too!
Just don't mention how you let a 10 bagger turned into a 5 bagger (don't hit the face!)
Always focus on the positives!
LOL!
If CPIS worked as "planned", our favourite choice for PM will not come out to say CPIS is "not fit for purpose". What refeshing honesty!
CW and I belong to the side of the spectrum that made money under CPIS. The beauty is we know this minority include a diveristy of animals as in investors and traders.
Its never the nouns; its always the adjectives ;)
If back testing and past data mining works well; then we all better to switch to Robot trading and investing. Who can beat the Robot into DEEP analysis without emotion and act on it with lighting speed?
ReplyDeleteAll can become truly passive and account size will made the difference among us.
CW,
DeleteSell side vested interests cannot get fees and commissions when customers are hesitant or confused. So to lull customers into confidence and conviction "thinking" they know what they were doing, what better way than to dumb things down to the level any idiot can understand?
See? Anyone and everyone can do it!!!
It started with Buy and Hold.
Then Passive low cost indexing.
Now Robo investing.
How much easier to explain the above than to explain to customers what the hell is Fundamentals and Technical analysis!
Just like when you meet your reader for kopi, would you share you've read almost EVERY financial book in our public library?
On stage 3 minutes; back stage 10 years blood and sweat...
My bad! I should never have said the Emperor got no clothes ;)
Humans no doubt love the easiest way out.
DeleteThe easy way is not tough.
The tough way is not easy.
The outcome reaped is very different in both situations.
Being a developer VS being a reseller VS being a consumer?
Developer: I've developed this application! Many people are using it!! I myself can use it too! And I'm earning money from it!
Reseller: Aiya.. Know how to use this platform to earn money can already ma. I also earning money.
Consumer: This product is good.
Hmm...
Hi all, I am back to read some articles and also make some comments. hehe :-)
DeleteBuy and hold generally made famous by WB. People are always idolising the best investors without realizing that different people are different.
Welcome back!
