Buying The Low - Deepstash

Buying The Low

Human nature is a powerful force, but it deludes us to believe our gut instincts. When the price of an asset falls to a level where an investor or trader believes is a logical, reasonable, and rational low, they perceive the price as a bargain.

After an initial purchase, if the price continues to fall, our emotions cause a dangerous impulse. The little voice in our heads (ego) declares that the market is wrong. But it's never wrong.

The quest to buy the low in any market has everything to do with ego and little to do with making a profit.
