Investing and Emotions Don’t Mix

For many people, investing can be very emotional. In declining markets, fear takes over and the natural reaction is to sell to prevent further losses. In advancing markets, greed is in control and produces a desire to buy more. These emotions are extremely dangerous to the health of your portfolio and if followed through, will inevitably lead to regrets later. Emotions do not belong at all in investing, only hard logic and reasoning does. For Star Trek fans, you should always be Mr. Spock as far as your portfolio is concerned. Live long and prosper!
