Rational & Calm investment.

-


 The world of investments can be a daunting one, with numerous financial products, strategies and opinions vying for attention. Many investors make decisions based on knee jerk reactions, emotion, or skewed advice – each influencing the success or failure of their investments. It is for this reason that it is essential for investors to be logical and maintain a calm in making financial decisions. 


Rational decisions are important for all types of investments, from long-term to short-term strategies, as it allows one to gauge the risks and potential rewards and take more informed decisions accordingly. This means understanding the basic principles of investing, such as the amount of capital you require upfront, the expected rate of return and the amount of risk you are willing to take on. By doing so, you are able to make more informed, evidence-based decisions and understand how they may vary depending on the prevailing market climate.


In addition, a well-trained investor should understand the elements of asset allocation and diversification and how they can be integrated into the investments made. Asset allocation is the process of dividing one's investments across different asset classes – such as stocks, bonds, and cash – and diversification is the strategy of investing for the long term with various different types of assets. Together, asset allocation and diversification can provide an additional layer of protection from risk and volatility. 


Another important factor to consider is having an overall investment plan that can be implemented and tested. Such a plan should include the initial investment, the rate of return required, the investment period and the risks that you are willing to take. It can also include details such as when to re-balance the portfolio and when to pull out or make additional investments. Such a plan provides a framework for reflection, evaluation and decision-making that can prevent investors from making ill-timed or irrational decisions. 


Before any investment decision is made, it is important to do thorough research and consider the risks more carefully. It is also important to turn off any emotional attachments to the investments and instead focus on the facts. Emotional decision-making can throw a wrench into the gears of the investment process and can easily put one at a disadvantage.


The logic behind maintaining a calm and rational approach to investment decisions is to find a balance between taking an informed calculated risk and guarding against potential losses. Through careful research, asset allocation, diversification and an overall plan, investors can make more informed decisions that are more likely to yield better results in the long run.
