An Investor Story: Judy Learns To Manage Investment Opportunities in Volatile Markets
Outgoing, sophisticated who makes friends easily. She is wise beyond her years, often providing sound advice. Being overly confident in one's ability to pick winning stocks, leading to risky investments. Reading blogs written by experienced investors and financial analysts. Past subprime lender and lack of personal attention. Launching initial coin offerings with no intention of developing the proposed product or service. Changes influenced by economic conditions, market trends, financial incentives, or regulatory policies.
Quoted Wisdom
“When you make a mistake, there are only three things you should ever do about it: admit it, learn from it, and don’t repeat it.”
Legendary American College Football coach, Paul 'Bear' Bryant teaches us that mistakes and crisis brings opportunity! Experienced investors know market turmoil and crisis delivers opportunities when others run in fear. Investors can learn to find opportunities to apply that timeless wisdom in any investment market.
Real Crisis or Market Opportunity?
Consider the recurring political crisis in American politics of a U.S. Government shutdown over debt limits. This drama is an entirely artificial political crisis played up by the party not in power. The silly game does have short term effects on markets, the economy and people. They all passes by until the next time.
- Oh! These political games! U.S. Government shutdown
- Political deadlock
- Debt ceiling looms
- Dollar up or is it down
- Gold up, down or does it matter?
- Tapering talk - yes, no, maybe
- Quantitative easing continues
- Massive debt growth
- 2008 Financial crisis lingers
- Pending economic gridlock
My vote is for staying in the stock market and looking for new opportunity. Every time that puts more money in my pockets. I suggest you do the same.
Often, by stepping back from the fray and thinking it through we can see good fortune lurking. Each of the above issues could indeed end the progress being made throughout the economy. True, possible, but a very unlikely outcome. In fact that is absolutely not going to happen.
Political games avoid burning voters
More than ever it continues to be hard to believe any words that come from political players. We are regularly being gamed. Do we need the political smarts of a Winston Churchill? We can only wish the politicians would fiddle with themselves and leave us alone. This never ending show will continue until voter fatigue, anger and financial support brings change.
I can’t see anything on the horizon that suggests any such development. Therefore my expectation is more of the same for the foreseeable future. And with the timely advice of Winston Churchill we should seize this as an opportunity.
So what to do?
Winston has the right idea. We can’t let this good crisis go by. We can use this politically manufactured endlessly looping replay and a volatile stock market to position ourselves to win.
Do your homework on any new stock positions you are considering and wait to buy when the market moves down. Think of it as stocks are going on sale! As stock market opportunities unfold politicians fiddle but that is normal. Just do your homework and be ready to load up!

With my research homework complete, I can patiently wait as stock market buying opportunities develop.
To play this, let the discounting continue. If you are risk tolerant, buy the dips. If you are more conservative wait until the market trends up. Then buy as we again climb up.
Once we start moving up again you will be able to ride your new positions higher. I expect that we can ride a wave of continuing market growth that will last for at least two more years and perhaps longer.
In addition to the multiple crises listed above there are many more signs of trouble. Global growth remains fragile. I am not ignoring the many negative issues but do believe that on balance the economy will grow. In my opinion, the stock market will work up to higher levels.
This opinion is based on the belief that enough of your neighbors have or will get jobs, buy or renovate houses and replace or add cars. If hiring and buying continue, the stock market will move higher.
I do think that consumer driven growth will continue. Simplistic, yes. But consumers consistently provide effective sets of economic indicators. The current October political crisis will pass and we will move higher.
Of course political games never end. Once past this set of disasters, those clever political lights will manufacture another one. Following the cool crisis example of the confident Winston Churchill, we shall take advantage and buy rather than sell.
And those beans we thought of grabbing as we ran for the hills, they can’t be forgotten. We will use them to make a fine base for our harvest stew - at home!
