“The market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent.” James Maynard Keynes

In an industry which caters to the greedy and already wealthy, it has become increasingly complex for the individual investor to find a path to success. “Buy and hold” is an inadequate investing philosophy yet has been promoted by Wall Street as the most successful style for the individual investor. Many intelligent investors have debunked this myth over and over again yet it is still endorsed by some and blinding a new generation of young investors. The reality is Wall Street wants to make money off you, not with you. Wall Street makes money by being better than you, not helping you. Selling is the most powerful and underrated ability for the individual investor. The ability to move in and out of a stock with speed, when necessary, is a major advantage over a large institution that would make large waves doing something similar. The idea is to create an investing style based around your own personality traits and amount of time. Through that, you can start to use the strengths that we, the individual investors, have. When this is accomplished, despite the times when the market acts completely illogical, you can still make money. Awareness is critical.

A large drawback to the individual investor is finding quality information to base your investment decisions on. Unfortunately, in a greedy industry as such, most everyone else’s agenda does not benefit yours. Kudrna’s Stock Market Talk was created to build a community of like-minded individual investors who want to help one another rather than manipulate the novices. The chat-room is moderated unlike other sites. What you will find is we actually care and prove it every day.

Follow us on twitter for updates and join the community by interacting in our live chat during market hours. Bring your research to the table and benefit from others research as well. Stick around and see why this has become the best community for the individual investor. It is simply because, “we actually care.”

Good luck out there.
