The Energy Level of Two Different Electrons.
Green electrons have a lower energy level than red electrons.
The goal in investing is to have more green electrons than red making up your portfolio on any given day.
The market determines which way the electrons will glow.
Never, ever fall in love with an asset, fall in love with green electrons.
Example: AAPL is down for the day, and Rat Tale Cigars is up. Which is the better stock? Answer: RTC.
Make a new years resolution to go which ever way the market does. Set up pivot points and know exactly why you are buying and exactly when you will sell. Then sit tight, and pull the trigger once the time comes.
Jesse said: "It's more important to buy at the right time, than at the right price.
No truer words were ever spoken.
I don't love any asset, but do love green electrons.
