nvesting rationally rather than emotionally

“The most important quality for an investor is temperament not intellect” – Warren Buffett, chief executive of Berkshire Hathaway

Sometimes our emotions can impact our investment choices, which can be to our detriment.

As we enter bull markets, the optimism, thrill, and excitement of rising values may lead us to think that making gains on investments will be easy. Sometimes this can lead us to increase our level of risk at a time when we should be more cautious.

On the other hand, when markets are in a downturn, we may be presented with strong buying opportunities. However, anxiety, fear and panic may prevent us from investing. In some cases, these emotions of desperation are enough to drive us to exit markets altogether – at precisely the wrong time.

Buffett’s adage reminds us to check in and ask ourselves whether our decisions are being driven by our emotions or by reason.
