Winning Stock Strategies ? How Investors try to Predict the Next Big Win

In this week’s edition:

• The Art of Stock Evaluation

• Should you learn these Strategies ?

Legendary Tech investor, James Anderson, recently made headlines for a bold prediction:

Nvidia’s stock price might grow 2,000% in 10 years, turning the chipmaker into a $50 Trillion company!

If this doesn’t make you want to invest in Nvidia Stock, I don’t know what will.

I mean come on, we already missed out on Nvidia's 2,720% rise in the past 5 years…

A legendary investor who predicted Amazon and Tesla’s success says there’s 2,000% more to go…

That’s FOMO for you.

It’s hard enough to resist random “Experts” on Social Media; let alone legitimate Investors. 

Before you decide to jump in or not, it’s worth understanding how these predictions are made.

In this week’s edition, we’ll break down 4 Stock Evaluation Techniques, their strengths/weaknesses, success rate and time frame.

But first, it’s the end of the month. And for many of us this means 1 question “Where did all my Money go ?”

The Art of Stock Evaluation:

There’s no one discipline called “Stock Price Predicting ''. It’s more of an Art with different techniques.

Some Investors focus on financial fundamentals, others like to look at price movement charts, or a combination of techniques.

There are even some who swear they can predict stock prices by observing the planets and the stars.

Whatever it is, no one technique rules them all.

Let’s take a deeper look at 4 of the most popular ones 

1. Fundamental Analysis:

• How it Works: Investors analyze a company's financial health, including its revenue, earnings, assets, liabilities, and growth potential. They also consider broader economic factors and industry trends.

• Pros: Provides a deep understanding of a company's intrinsic value.

• Cons: Requires in-depth research and can be subjective.

• Success Rate: Varies depending on the analyst's skill, the accuracy of their assumptions and how “rational” the market is.

• When Relevant: Best for long-term investors looking to assess a company's overall prospects.

2. Technical Analysis:

• How it Works: Investors study historical price charts and trading volumes to identify patterns and trends. They use tools like moving averages, support and resistance levels, and momentum indicators.

• Pros: Can help identify short-term price movements.

• Cons: Relies on past data and doesn't consider a company's fundamental value.

• Success Rate: Controversial, with some investors swearing by it and others dismissing it as "chart voodoo."

• When Relevant: Best for short-term traders and those looking for entry and exit points.

3. Quantitative Analysis:

• How it Works: Investors use complex mathematical models and algorithms to analyze vast amounts of data and make predictions.

• Pros: Removes emotion from decision-making and can process information quickly.

• Cons: Models are only as good as the data they're based on and can be expensive to develop.

• Success Rate: Varies depending on the complexity and accuracy of the model.

• When Relevant: Best for institutional investors and those with access to sophisticated resources.

4. Sentiment/Trend Analysis:

• How it Works: Investors gauge market sentiment by tracking news articles, social media posts, and other sources to gauge investor optimism or pessimism.

• Pros: Can provide insights into short-term market fluctuations.

• Cons: Sentiment can be fickle and difficult to quantify.

• Success Rate: Mixed, as sentiment can be a contrarian indicator or self-fulfilling prophecy.

• When Relevant: Best for short-term traders and those interested in market psychology.

Should You Learn These Techniques ?

Unless you really love the topic and/or want to become an active investor: not really.
It’s too much time and effort to master. Even then, very few “masters” outperform the market in the long term.

But, it's important to understand them because we’ve never been bombarded with more experts promising to predict the next Nvidia or Bitcoin.
Even a basic understanding can help you filter out the nonsense.
