In this video, you will learn about the buy and hold strategy. #buyandhold #investing #wallstreetmojo #warrenbuffet #financialmarkets Chapters: 00:00 – Introduction 00:37 – What is the buy and hold strategy? 01:26 – Examples 02:38 – Advantages 03:19 – Disadvantages 03:54 – Important points to note 04:45 – Conclusion What is the buy and hold strategy? The buy and hold strategy is a strategy in which investors buy or invest in assets for the long term, with no intentions of getting out of it in the short term. Such investors usually rely on fundamental analysis that includes factors like past performance, long term growth strategy, company management, etc. Buy and hold investors wouldn’t be affected by short-term market fluctuations, business cycles, or even inflation. Instead, they’d only focus on investing at the right price and staying invested for a long time. Examples We have taken an example in the video that will help you better understand the topic. So do check out the example section in the video. Advantages Since an investor using this strategy would buy the stock just once, overall, there are fewer transactions. Hence, brokerage, advisory fees, and commissions are low. Since investors hold their investments for the long term, the long term capital gains tax will apply to them, which is lower than short term capital gains tax. It is easy for investors to adopt this strategy as it requires stock selection just once and doesn’t require investors to constantly track stock prices. Disadvantages The buy and hold strategy will test an investor’s behavioral biases and emotions in case the prices fall. Hence, investors will need to have high risk tolerance as the buy and hold strategy is easy to implement but is hard to follow with discipline. Also, investors holding the stock for the long term, through thick and thin, don’t really have any limit on how much loss they would be willing to take. Important points to note Even though you’d invest and hold for the long term, you should take market fluctuations into consideration and not just ignore them altogether. Don’t think this strategy applies only to stocks or bonds. There are people that implement this strategy in real estate too. They’d buy properties and hold them for a long term without flipping them. A diversified portfolio is very important, even if you use the buy and hold strategy. This was all about the buy and hold strategy.

There are several factors to consider when analyzing a company’s days sales outstanding. These include: • The company’s days sales outstanding relative to its industry • Trends in the company’s days sales outstanding over time • Caveats that can make days sales outstanding misleading A company might have a lower days sales outstanding than its competitors because: • The company has superior credit and collection policies (operational excellence) • The company is larger and is using its size to negotiate better credit terms (size advantage) • The company is pursuing a different strategy than its peers • The company is selling its receivables (factoring) When it comes to long-term trends, an increase in days sales outstanding could mean: • General economic conditions have deteriorated (e.g., there’s a recession) • One or more of the company’s main customers is experiencing financial difficulties • The company has relaxed its credit policy to attract new, less creditworthy customers • The company discontinued a policy of selling its receivables • The company is engaging in aggressive revenue recognition Finally, there are some caveats to bear in mind when analyzing days sales outstanding: • First, if you’re using quarterly data, make sure to use year-over-year comparisons instead of quarter-over-quarter comparisons if the company’s business is seasonal • Second, companies sometimes change the way they calculate sales or accounts receivable, which can distort days sales outstanding. So be on the lookout for that • Third, slow collection of some credit sales might be masked by fast collection of other credit sales • Fourth, companies can almost always benefit from a lower days sales outstanding. But it’s possible for days sales outstanding to be too low if the company is overly strict about granting credit and thus missing out on sales 0:00 Introduction 0:16 Industry factors 3:20 Analyzing trends 7:26 Caveats — Edspira is the creation of Michael McLaughlin, an award-winning professor who went from teenage homelessness to a PhD.

In this video, you will learn what bull and bear markets are and the difference between the two. #bullmarket #bearmarket #wallstreetmojo #economy #macrocycle Chapters: 00:00 – Introduction 00:28 – What is bull market? 01:24 – What is bear market? 02:17 – Difference between bull and bear market 04:56 – Conclusion What is bull market? When the prices of financial assets keep increasing continuously, the market is said to be bullish. A bull market indicates an optimistic sentiment among investors, increasing demand for financial assets. Even though bull markets give investors great opportunities to make money, it’s not that the prices will always keep going up. What is bear market? A bear market is when the prices of financial assets keep falling continuously. Such a market condition indicates pessimistic sentiment and panic among traders and investors. Also, it’s not that bearish markets do not give investors a chance to make money. Traders and investors can make a lot of money by shorting the market, while some see bearish markets as buying opportunities as prices are quite low. Difference between bull and bear market Concerning the state of the economy, the GDP expects to grow in a bull market as there’s high demand and sales are high. But, on the other hand, in a bear market, sales and the overall economy are down. Hence, the GDP falls. Also, during bullish conditions, expansionary policies are rolled out, so it makes sense for banks to reduce interest rates that encourage people to take loans and use the money. But, in a bearish market, interest rates are increased to make people use their money only wherever necessary. In bullish conditions, all securities don’t equally do good. So only the securities with high risks give good returns, for example, stocks. But if you notice, low-risk securities like gold, fixed deposits, and bonds make much more sense in bearish conditions.

Companies can unlock a lot of value by reducing their days sales outstanding. A lower days sales outstanding: –Frees up cash –Reduces financing costs by shortening the cash conversion cycle –Results in a higher collection rate Accounts receivable can be viewed as cash that is trapped on a company’s balance sheet. By reducing days sales outstanding, a company can free up that cash. The cash can then be used to: –Finance growth –Pay off debt –Invest in securities and earn a return –Make a distribution to shareholders –Improve liquidity for market shocks Remember, allowing a customer an additional day to pay their bill is no different than giving the customer an interest-free loan. 0:00 Introduction 0:17 Frees up cash 1:02 Shorter cash conversion cycle 2:29 Higher collection rate — Edspira is the creation of Michael McLaughlin, an award-winning professor who went from teenage homelessness to a PhD.

In this video, you will learn about bull markets. #bullmarket #bullishmarket #wallstreetmojo #financialmarkets #buylowsellhigh Chapters: 00:00 – Introduction 00:38 – What does a bull market mean? 01:55 – Bull market indicator 03:04 – How to profit from bull markets? 04:05 – Conclusion What does a bull market mean? A bull market is when the prices of financial assets keep rising for a prolonged period. Compared to a bear market, which represents panic and pessimism, a bull market reflects positive market sentiment and tells us that investors are confident in the financial markets. If you’ve seen a bull attack, you’ll see that it usually lifts its horns. That’s why a market is said to be a bullish market when the prices keep going up. (Explained in detail in the video) Bull market indicator Some investors and traders look out for certain indicators to identify whether a market is bullish or not. One simplest indicator of a bull market is a 20% up move from recent lows. Another thing that market participants look for is a steady rise in broad market indexes and stable volatility indexes. Bond yields are important for investors and traders to identify overall market trends. How to profit from bull markets? It would help if you made sensible investing decisions based on extensive market research and due diligence rather than following the herd. It is impossible to time the markets with utmost accuracy, so you need to be rational with your investing decisions and have a plan.

In this video, you will learn about blue chip stocks. #bluechipstocks #largecapstocks #wallstreetmojo #stockmarket #investing Chapters: 00:00 – Introduction 00:37 – What are blue chip stocks? 01:17 – Characteristics 02:54 – Investing in blue chip stocks 03:50 – Conclusion What are blue chip stocks? Blue chip stocks are publicly listed securities of leading companies with the largest market capitalization. These are quality stocks that are worth a lot and are usually added to top market indexes like the S&P500, NASDAQ, DJIA, etc. Characteristics Large-cap stocks Low risk Stable growth Long-term perspective Dividend payout (Explained in detail in the video) Investing in blue chip stocks Blue chip stocks show stability during inflation, recession, depression, and other economic downturns. But, returns are in no way guaranteed to investors. These stocks are relatively less risky than other mid-cap, low-cap, or penny stocks and have decent balance sheets, cash flow, business models, and growth rates. This makes it attractive for long-term investors with a relatively low-risk appetite. (Explained in detail in the video) This is all about blue chip stocks.
