Why Staying Calm During Trade News Can Make You a Better Investor

Hello Investors!

I hope everyone is hanging in there with all the trade deal news that is happening. I would be waiting with extra cash just in case the market does go back down, but still keep to my regular investment days. I am hoping that people know that the news always has an impact on how the stock market reacts. There is no way to predict how the market will move when news does come out. The only thing you can do is invest in good companies that you believe will still be profitable during and after a trade war. When it comes to tech stocks there are always ups and downs no matter what because the tech stocks always will have new products that come out every year. This is the main reason why I like tech stocks is because there is always money to be made when it comes to technology. Everyone wants new technology no matter what their financial situation is. There are some people that cannot afford a new phone, but they still purchase the new iPhone when it releases every year because they are into new tech items. I cannot blame them because I usually buy a new phone every five years just to keep up to date on what is happening in the world.

I cannot wait until my buy day this week because I am looking forward to purchasing more shares of Nvidia before it goes higher. I am still hoping that people are investing in Tesla because even though you do not like Elon Musk there is always money to be made when good stocks go down. I like to always take advantage of a down stock because I know I will double my money. If I only had more money I could probably retire knowing that I will just make money off of stocks. Once you can overcome emotions you will be a market expert.

Until next time…Have a wonderful weekend and remember it is never too late to start investing!
