WSJ Your Money Briefing · How to Invest With Certainty in an Uncertain World · 28 Feb 2022 podcast

If you've been in the markets for quite a while, look back 10 years or five years.

Or if you're new to the markets, look back one year.

See if you can remember.

What investment decisions you made exactly one year ago or five years ago or 10 years ago?

Or even imagine making an investment decision in the past at those points.

And then ask yourself, what decision could I have made that would have made a big difference to my portfolio results today?

And if you put it in longer term perspective, you're likely to realize that there wasn't much you could have done at the time that would have made a significant difference to your performance, which tells you that except at extraordinary turning points in market history, which can be very hard to recognize in any case, most decisions that people make are likely to make very little difference to their overall returns.

Great to be with you, JR.

Thanks.

What every investor wants is good ideas, you know, the next Google, the next Tesla, the next hot stock or other financial asset. voice-verified

But what we all need more than good ideas is good habits. voice-verified

Great to be with you, JR. voice-verified

The stock market faces some really obvious headwinds or at least perceived headwinds. voice-verified

You know, inflation is very high, much higher than it was a year ago. voice-verified

Interest rates are poised to rise. voice-verified

At least that's the way everybody perceives it. voice-verified

And, of course, we're now facing a resurgence of coronavirus. voice-verified

So it's easy to get strong conviction on those ideas and maybe take action that might or might not turn out to be the right decision. voice-verified

One of the secrets about the buy and hold investment philosophy is that people tend to criticize it for any short-term setback while ignoring the incredible long-term power it has over the course of decades. voice-verified

You know, in 2008 and 2009, there were a lot of people ridiculing the buy and hold approach, but it really redeemed itself in the decade to come. voice-verified
