I mean, let’s say there are stock market investors. Is it a good idea for you guys to be constantly telling new people, won’t that saturate it? I don’t understand how people all over, on places like this can just tell others their methods. It doesn’t make sense, i’d keep it secret. Does the stock market experience saturation if too many investors join? I’m just wondering, I do not know.
The stock market does not work on speculation of small investors. Little guys, like you and I, don’t make any difference when compared to large financial institutions who trade millions of dollars every day. You’re $10,000 nest egg is a blip on the radar, so even if you get 100 friends to buy a stock, the market would never know the difference.
the idea is that new people lose money, especially with the pump and dump schemes 😉
The stock market size is trillions of dollars. A few people adding a few thousand dollar isn’t going to make any difference.
There are two basic approaches to investment: actively managed and passively managed. Under a passive strategy, you’re trusting the market to correctly price the stocks, etc. So there is no reason not to share your approach. But at the same time, your approach is never going to deliver more than the risk-adjusted market return. Under an actively managed strategy, you’re trying to beat the market. This means that you need some edge that the majority of investors don’t have. If you have an edge like this, you would be mad to share it as it would become worthless as soon as everyone else started doing it. That’s why you should never trust anyone who offers to sell you a trading system.
