IF- The Wonders of Investing

If it seems as if all investors are
selling, who is buying?

If trading has become entertainment
for you, it may be time to refocus
on profits.

If your stock has reached an annual
low, can it go any lower?

If your stock has reached an annual
high, can it go any higher?

If all the television analysts jumped
off a bridge, would anyone care?

If your portfolio is based solely on
fundamental analysis, perhaps it
is time to learn technical analysis.

If I said you had a beautiful portfolio, would you hold it against an index?

If you are tired of losing value on the long side, perhaps its time to learn
both sides of the market.

If you do not have a written financial
plan, you should.

If you could put aside $205 at the
beginning of each month for thirty-
five years, with an 11% annualized
return you may save over $1
million.

If you have stopped looking at your
portfolio statements, does that mean
your game plan is off?

If a fool and his money are easily
separated, who introduced the two?

If buy and hold is your philosophy,
why do you need a broker?

If a tree falls in the forest, does it ruin the stock market for the day?

If someone invented a computer
program for investments that proved
100% correct all the time, we would
never know about it.

If you think the market capitulated,
you are not in a state of selling
hysteria.

If 1,000,000 lemmings jump, can they
all be wrong?

If you want to know what Greenspan
thinks about economics, count the
times he smiles.

If you expect nothing of your
portfolio, you will not be
disappointed.

If you are a rational investor, can you benefit from an irrational market?

If you managed your money like the
government, you would take money
from your neighbor and spend it on
stock options that expire this week.

If you are confused with the opinions
of the media, create your own.
