When we invest in a stock market making quick money mindset is just a part of the main body fundamentals. I believe in Buffett philosophy not only making money in investment but it’s about how to take over the company. Investment in a stock market meaning to say you are part of the company’s share holder. You just can’t simply putting your bag of gold in any company if you don’t see growth in it. Believing is one thing but to foresee the future of the company is another which Buffett really have great insights on this. When I started off trading and investing using this app last year it’s been greatly appreciated the things I have learnt and the mistakes I’ve come across so far, but to me every step is a great one where I see a greater returns in my following paths I made so far.
I missed out on Tesla where starting at $600 thinking will it reach a higher height in the future? yes indeed it reach a new record high last month hitting over 1K. So we do see that certain companies are able to achieve great scores, but the matter is are we able to believe and hold on to those companies. The answer is yes. But we need to first see the surrounding around us. Things in daily life actually gives a great answer to what we actually missed out. Quote an example in daily life, many iPhone users out there, iPad users ? Haha I do believe majority around us holds one of them. When I first got my free stock Apple share $124. Was holding it till now, take a step back and look how much have it grown.
Things happening after covid have also brought about Grab into daily lifestyle. So up goes the Grab stock as well.
To sum up all, I believe that when we do investment we do look into the future of the company rather than at the current situation. Only buy something that you'd be perfectly happy to hold if the market shut down for 10 years. Avoid investing in a business you cannot understand and have less insights on.
Buffett quotes “the stock market is a device for transferring money from the impatient to the patient”
Yeah this quote rocks!

$Apple (AAPL.US)$ 
$AMC Entertainment (AMC.US)$ 
$BlackBerry (BB.US)$ 
$Seagate Technology (STX.US)$ 
$Sensata Technologies (ST.US)$ 
$American Airlines (AAL.US)$

The biggest mistake is greed. Did all the research study ( technical and fundamental analysis ) for $BlackBerry (BB.US)$ 12.39  in early Nov but greedy and never sell and stock price drop so low at times to below $BlackBerry (BB.US)$ 8.62. Buying and selling do not get too emotional

My 2021 investment journey has been rock and roll so far. Here are some of the few stocks that I bought (and/or sold to book profit). Most of them have rewarded me decently.
$NVIDIA (NVDA.US)$   $Tesla (TSLA.US)$   $BlackBerry (BB.US)$   $Apple (AAPL.US)$   $Advanced Micro Devices (AMD.US)$   $Applied Materials (AMAT.US)$   $Ford Motor (F.US)$   $Alibaba (BABA.US)$   $Cisco (CSCO.US)$   $Tata Motors (TTM.US)$   $Fiverr International (FVRR.US)$   $Microsoft (MSFT.US)$   $American Airlines (AAL.US)$   $Rivian Automotive (RIVN.US)$   $Nokia Oyj (NOK.US)$   $Thermo Fisher Scientific (TMO.US)$   $Qualcomm (QCOM.US)$   $Intel (INTC.US)$ 
There are lots of ups and downs but it was good, as at every point of time, I have actually learnt something.
Stock market is like an ocean of knowledge. I get to learn something new at each and every step I take. It teaches me how to stay disciplined with my own money!
So far, I have enjoyed investing in this volatile market and I think this is the best time for anyone to enter the market and make some smart investments which can definitely pay off in the future. Remember, only invest what you can afford to lose!
I think my best investment by far is my education which has lead me to where I am today. It made me capable enough that I not only earn for myself but can help others too.
The majority of my investment is in the real estate followed by stocks, mutual funds, cryptocurrency and investing in watches.
Real estate is the other success story for me where I think I gained the best, while the rest of my investments also did reasonably well in 2021.
I believe in a well-diversified portfolio as it will expose me to much more opportunities for returns, while safeguarding against adverse market cycles.
I always believe in spending wisely than just investing for accumulating wealth. Whatever I earn, I try my best to utilise very wisely.
Summation of my stock market journey:
Markets are forever.
There should be no compulsion to trade every day.
Taking care of losses is essential.
Patience pays.
Wealth is a two-way road and one should learn to make it one way. Wealthy are those who learned the concept of keeping invested in liquid assets.
I have seen many people entering the stock markets looking for profits. Some will get quick profits in initial days and once they start losing money, they leave the markets. My suggestion would be, do not leave the markets. Stock markets are the biggest Teachers.
If trading is not your cup of tea, go for investing. Investments in stock markets give you returns which no one can ever provide. Thus, please exercise patience and stay long in the markets.
The bargain hunter in me automatically makes me a value investor. Eg, I will abruptly transit to buying something on sale, from buying something I had originally planned to get, when I feel they are on a super sale.
Always understand the difference between price and value. When you pay too high for a good business, you turn a great business into a poor investment. This turns your greatest advantage into greatest disadvantage. No matter how good the stock is, always buy at a bargain.
