When it comes to investing, choosing NOT to put your money somewhere can be just as important to your success. After all, one poor investment can easily water down the rest of your portfolio and cripple your returns. http://bit.ly/2tswhrn

  1. what about REIT stocks which are basically known for having a higher long tern debt than their net income because they make money in the process of borrowing money, do they fall into that category of stocks we shouldn't buy? someone please give some clarification on the subject.

  2. I have been burned a few times. I lost about 80% on Retail Food Group, 80% on Dropsite, 50% on iCar Asia, 50% on Livetiles, 50% on Fintech Chain. In short this is why I stay out of investing in individual small cap stocks as all of these except retail food group was a small cap stock. I have had other loses but these were the worst. For the most part they were not recent investments as I have now learned to fully research a stock and not just buy it because an advisory service I paid for recommended it.

  3. So I just opened a Roth thru my employer and matched there maximum invest (6%) and put it in a small caps investment. What can I expect if anything, what is expected of me at this point?

  4. I bought ExxonMobil after the inauguration on the premise that the sanctions against Russia would get lifted and the deal with rostneft would go thru and dive ExxonMobil thru the roof…now I just want to get my money plus some back before the market adjusts.

  5. I love your videos and podcasts. Thank you so much for sharing all this information! Really helps so much to slowly wrap my head around investments.

  6. Unless you know the management personally, it is impossible to know much about them. It's not like a sport where you can look up players' stats or watch them play. The last company I worked for I knew the CEO very well, as well as some VPs. I would not invest a single penny in his business!! He is not a person I'd trust, and the business model itself is never going to be successful in long term. I really see no way how you'd know this info otherwise without knowing the management personally. The best solution I could find is read company reviews on Glassdoor from their employees. If a company is rated low, that usually means people don't like working there, and that's often because of bad management.

  7. I am a beginner in stock market and learn a lot of things from you.
    But I am facing some problem as your all books are written for U.S market but I am an Indian.
    In your book you wrote that if you face any problem you can mail me. But I can't find your mail address.
    So, I request you Sir please clear my doubts.

  8. Good video like always. I think It’s really hard for a young investor to find a good stock and being mentally strong to wait for the right price. I personally have bought stocks to see it go down to the margin of safety a few weeks later. For that reason, I start buying literally one share at a time using commission free Robinhood and limit orders. What do you think about that strategy and how do you think commission free trading changes strategies and the way to build or sell a positions?
    Thanks Phil for sharing your knowledge!
