Basic Investing Principles 1

Columbine: Likely a Mckanna hybrid.

ITA Wealth Management focuses on the following investment philosophy.

  • Follow The Golden Rule – “Save as much as you can as early as you can.”
  • Build the portfolio around index ETFs instead of attempting to select individual stocks.
  • Understand the relationship between return and risk.
  • Employ a risk reduction model in order to avoid major bear markets.
  • Diversify the portfolio across all asset classes and around the globe.
  • Rely on research rather than emotions when making investment decisions.
  • Educate yourself by reading recommended books on this site.
  • Become a Platinum member of ITA Wealth Management and gain access to actual portfolio decisions.  Register as a Guest and then wait to be elevated to the Platinum level.

Login to ITA several times a week to track the portfolios and other critical information.
