How good investors think?

avatar

Good investors have a long-term perspective on their investments and are willing to undergo periods of losses as well.

They are not too concerned with short-term price fluctuations in the market. The market is constantly changing and prices tend to fluctuate, which is why they invest what they can afford to lose and invest in the long haul.

You should be aware that a good investor is not just a person who can speculate on when an asset will increase or decrease in value, but also a person who knows how different assets change over time.

A good investor is often aware of different economic factors, such as inflation and deflation, as well as political instability. Investors know what they want from their investments so they can adjust themselves accordingly and make appropriate decisions based on the circumstances.

Investors try to have a general understanding of the company they are investing in, and also the space it operates in. They try to validate the company’s claims and be able to think critically about the viability of their business model and its alignment with other companies in the same sector.

Investors are risk takers and they are always in search of a higher return. They want to make the right decisions when it comes to taking risks, which is a very difficult task given that they cannot predict the future.

Investors also try to avoid cognitive biases, such as confirmation bias or projection bias, while making decisions. A good investor is humble enough to admit his mistakes and learn from them. While a bad investor would rather blame external factors for his mistakes and stubbornly refuse to learn any lessons from them.

A good investor always has a plan and understands his objective, the risks he is willing to take, and when he is going to exit the trade.

He doesn't put all his eggs in one basket, as this will lead you into bankruptcy if the investment goes south.

He explores the different levels of stock market forecasting skills, as well as some insights from some of the other good investors and traders.

He achieves a certain level of awareness, understands the macroeconomic context, and assesses the outlook for relevant industries. Also, he understands and analyzes individual stocks within the industry, with an eye to value creation or destruction and investment opportunities in both directions.

Investors have a very process-oriented way of thinking when it comes to investing. They don't just invest in an idea, they invest in the idea after it has been validated according to a set of rules or procedures.
