Boa noite, escrevo este post apenas para fazer uma questão:
Quantas vezes se perde dinheiro por se seguir essas regras de investimento?
There's Always a Bull Market
By Jim Cramer
I like to end every television and radio show I have with this signoff: "There is always a bull market somewhere, and I will try to find it for you." I say that because it's true.
Something is always working! Maybe it's gold, so you buy best-of-breed Newmont Mining (NEM). Maybe it's oil, so you buy some Halliburton (HAL). Maybe it's the chemical complex, so you pick up some Dow Chemical (DOW). I've seen moments where the only stocks in bull mode were in your supermarket or your medicine chest, stocks like Anheuser-Busch (BUD) and PepsiCo (PEP).
Now, I know that might mean you have to do some trading. It might mean that you may have to look further and harder than your time and your inclination allow. That's OK, too. What matters is that you don't simply default to what's in bear mode because you are time-constrained or intellectually lazy.
This is not just a criticism of do-it-yourselfers. Many professionals stuck with the leg irons of the wrong tech stocks long after they should have. If they looked around, they might have spotted the bull market in oil, and bought something as simple as Exxon Mobil (XOM) or as complex but rewarding as Ultra Pete (UPL).
Just remember:
There is always a bull market somewhere.
I will always end my shows with this tag line because it is vital for me to get you to think more opportunistically than the average investor does.
Oh, and by the way, it has the added advantage of being true. For 25 years there has always been a sector that works. You just have to find it. I know it, and I am honored if you will let me help you.
Explain Your Picks
By Jim Cramer
One of the worst things that ever happened to stock picking was the Internet, because it took away one of the most important brakes on the process, one of the most important warning systems, which is talking to someone about a buy. Now you can, with a stroke of a key, buy the stock of Sirius (SIRI ) or Avaya (AV ) without ever having to explain to another human being why you are doing so.
This is why you should always:
Be able to explain your stock picks to someone else.
Buying stocks is a solitary event -- too solitary. As I love to say, we all are prone to making mistakes, sometimes big ones. One way to cut down on these mistakes is to force yourself to articulate to someone else why you like Elan (ELN ) or why you think Biogen Idec (BIIB ) is a winner.
When I was at my hedge fund, I always made every portfolio manager sell me the stock, literally sell it to me like a salesperson, before I would buy it. If you are in a position where you are picking stocks yourself, get someone to listen to you and let you articulate your reasoning.
Recently, one of my email correspondents said that her daughter bought the stock of Sony (SNE ) because of the Xbox. Ouch! That would be Microsoft (MSFT ) that makes the Xbox. A mistake like that would have been picked up by most people who articulated their reasoning to others. The simple selling of the idea first, to someone else, can help you spot flaws.
I also like to ask people, "What's going to make this EMC (EMC ) go up, what's the catalyst?" Or, "Have we missed the move in this EnCana (ECA ) already?" And, "What's your edge?" These are among the questions I ask. If you can't answer, you shouldn't be buying.

Mais ... se alguem está na TV e esse alguem é Director do Raycaparta, Inc. ou Administrador da Hajede Kávir, S.A. e diz que tem " umas acções que são muuuuuita boas !!

Ou está carregadentalado delas e está a ver se puxa pl`aquilo ou está carregadmortinho prás vender . E até é possivel que elas subam !! Só que quando vocês !! as forem comprar , elas descem . Não se sintam mal. Vocês estão na Bolsa pra isso. Essa é a vossa função . Sintam-se parte de um todo ..!!
Por ex. ... isto é só um ex. , completamente ficticio ..! ... está um gajo na TV vestido de preto , meio careca, a acenar e a dizer algo como ( ... não se preocupem se não o entenderem lá muito bem , por que ninguem o consegue...) : " ...dú dú , didú as acções dú empréeeese Gubrilon son muuta bôs ... Vive ús acções dú Gabrilon ..! "
... vocês fugem ...

Beware the Wall Street Hype
By Jim Cramer
Amateurs and professionals alike simply don't have enough respect for the Wall Street promotion machine.
They don't realize that balls can stay in the air much longer than they should. They don't understand that analysts and firms get behind stocks -- sometimes irrationally, sometimes greedily -- and they can keep the stocks propelled in an up direction well beyond reason.
That's why I say,
Never underestimate the Wall Street promotion machine.
Consider American International Group (AIG -) and Fannie Mae (FNM ). Here are two companies with extensive banking opportunities dangling from one side and good track records hanging from the other. These had been two lovey blankets for the sell side for so long that they wouldn't give them up. Both stocks stayed up far too long, even in the post-Spitzer era, because the analysts viewed it as their job to keep the stocks up.
Now, I don't mind admitting that things are better now than they used to be. When I owned Cabela's (CAB ) right after it came public, the analysts who brought it public bent over backward not to recommend the stock, to the point that I missed the promotion machine.
Analysts now have some degree of conscience and are able to separate themselves from being flunkies for banking. But that doesn't mean they won't fall in love with some stocks and do everything they can to praise them long after they shouldn't. It tends to happen particularly to winners, stocks like the online education companies or the biotechs or some of the doggier software companies. The hope never ends. The hype never ends. Not until the cracks are so obvious that it is too late to get out.
In particular, when you short a stock remember that an analyst will twist any data point into a positive to get a stock juiced. Again, that's his job. Don't think badly of him; just be ready to reload when he does it.
Wait 30 Days After Warnings
By Jim Cramer

Few rules have saved me more than the 30-day preannouncement rule.
When Tibco Software (TIBX ) preannounces a bad quarter, do you rush to buy it? Are you someone who put money to work in Waters (WAT ) right after its vicious preannouncement in spring 2005?
If you are, this rule is for you:
Always wait 30 days after an earnings preannouncement before you buy.
I designed it because I recognize how compelling some of these price adjustments are, but they often are not deep enough to make the stocks ultimately attractive.
Here's why. When a company preannounces a bad quarter, it isn't just looking at the past. It is looking at its order book, its future. Believe me, if there were any hope that the company wouldn't have to preannounce -- hope in the form that maybe something could get better, not worse in the next 30 days -- the company would wait.
Preannouncements signal ongoing weakness. That's why I like to wait 30 days to see if anything has gotten better before I pull the trigger to buy.
Sure, I will miss some great opportunities. Most of the time, though, after 30 days, I find that there is more woe and another leg down! If there isn't, then I might miss a point or even 2, but I will be on terra firma. That's the only thing you want to be stepping on in any market, including this one.
