Quotes to ponder:

"It’s mostly nonsense, because don’t you think if analysts, economists, or strategists knew where the market was headed they’d be investing for themselves instead of working for a salary?"

“Make the market your servant, not your master.”

"But if you want to make the most money investing you need to do what most people can’t do: buy when everyone else panics and sells."
