The Tortoise or the Bear? After heavy equity losses and luminaries such as Antony Bolton at Fidelity predicting an end to the bull market where does that leave investors?
Out of pocket is the short answer. It has actually been measured that a financial loss carries 2.5 times the emotional burden of the equivalent gain. What that confirms is something we all know. Investors do not have a consistent view of risk. If they make money they are happy but if they lose money they feel 2.5 times worse. So advising people on their wealth is a tough job. So what is the answer? Well what about buying an asset which has a fixed final value but at a deep discount. And then gently unwinding the value over time.
