What investing advice would you give to your younger self?

The wisdom of the crowd:

@InvestmentTalkk - Learn Basic Accounting

@AneliCaroline - There is no free lunch. If a stock or bond is cheap, there is a reason for that.

👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇
@Triggs1Martin - Get started now!

@MP_Fitzgerald - Penny stocks are penny stocks for a reason, and it’s usually never a good reason.

@MikeCincoSays - You shouldn't sell a stock just because it doubled or even tripled.

@tylerpolley11 - Invest, don’t trade.
@Ebrahim_AlTheeb - Buy great companies and hold as long as possible!

@therobertleonar - Log out of your brokerage account and don't log back in for a long time.

@CJCarr_17 - Don’t listen to your buddy.
@fools_gd - I don't have to be super creative in order to find multi-baggers-- I just have to have the strength to hold through the noise.

@CanaSwi - Water your flowers, not your weeds!

@whichthat - The four costliest words in investing are really “I’d better act fast.”
@MGoodlife21- Understand the companies you’re investing in and how they make money.

@StefanRMarais Don't ever try and stop compounding, you can't make it back - Simply leave it.

@DerekTian4 My time horizon is my biggest edge against the street.
@advizewealth - 1) Get market returns 2) automate savings 3) focus on what you can control (income, expenses, taxes, behavior, etc)

@apb_____ Don’t chase dying industries. Companies are priced low for a reason.
@RaymondFAllen - Don’t invest in things you don’t thoroughly understand

@themissinglinks - Execution is what drives stock prices. Not valuation.

@vsarda - Simplicity trumps everything else.
@Darren1PRiOR - Don’t. Ever. Sell. Just. Keep. Buying.

@GrahamKlerks - Buy and hold. Don't try to time the market.

@shettystock - Timing the market is a fool's errand

@still_ill______ - Quality matters more than price

The 5 "Technical Analysis" Charts I use every day

⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
1) 5-Year Performance vs. $SPY

Winners keep on winning

It's a great sign if a stock has beaten the market over the last 5 years

It's a warning sign if it has lost badly

$MKTX ✅
$MNKD 🚫
2) Long-term Revenue Growth

Recurring revenue is the gift that keeps on giving

Consistent revenue growth -- especially through recessions -- indicates greatness

Inconsistent revenue growth = avoid

$MA ✅
$XOM 🚫

How to build positions at "better and better value points"

Let say I wanted to build a position in $MA from scratch

Here's my step by step process

1) Enter ticker into Yahoo Finance and click on "statistics"

More: 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇
2) Open up the "Buy/Sell" tab on my spreadsheet

docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…
3) Let's say I want to build in $1,000 increments

$MA current price is $335.31

So $1,000 is 3 shares

I start by buying my first traunch immediately
