An aggressive investor is growth-minded and open to the chance of a higher percentage loss or under-performance in the short run, in exchange for higher returns on investment. If this sounds like you, we have a few insights and resources that will help you make informed financial decisions.


Warren Buffett’s Valuable Advice for Investors




Invest in what you know and understand

Buffett suggests that one of the easiest ways to avoid catastrophic investment losses is studying the asset you plan to invest in and avoiding investments that are overly complex.



When you invest in a stock, plan to hold it forever

Warren Buffett is a big endorser of the buy-and-hold investment strategy. He himself has held on to some of his assets for decades and believes only patient investors are rewarded.



Form Healthy Money Habits

He encourages you to build a healthy relationship with money, through positive money habits such as budgeting, building a financial plan and sticking to it, and actively nipping those habits that will hurt your financial health and security.



Invest in yourself. Inflation can’t diminish your skills

The best kind of investment is in yourself and your skills. They will be your biggest asset in good times and in challenging times. “Anything you invest in yourself, you get back tenfold,” Buffett said. How much you get paid may change with inflation, but if the skills you bring to the table are exceptional, people will always be willing to trade financial remuneration or a product in exchange for your skills.

Strategies for dealing with market volatility


Market volatility can be stressful, and you may feel the urge to sell everything. You need to resist that temptation, as a market correction could be rewarding in the long run. Always invest for the future and stay diversified and disciplined in your investment.


Stick to your financial plan

An unexpected fluctuation in the market can have a radically different impact on someone at the start of their career as compared to someone about to retire. You need to understand your current situation and your financial plan and stick to it.

Invest regularly, no matter the state of the market

Don’t let emotions influence your financial decisions. A great strategy for dealing with market volatility is focusing on long-term results rather than the daily ups and downs. Stay consistent with your investments.

Maintain a diversified portfolio

By building your portfolio with a mix of mutual funds that invest in stocks, bonds, and cash equivalents, you may lower your risk because you’re not overexposed to any one type of investment. A diversified portfolio doesn’t guarantee a profit, but it can help reduce the impact of volatility over time.

When in doubt, just do nothing

The best strategy in volatile times is that when you do not understand the undertone of the market, it is best to stay put and hold your investments.

Find Resources and Tools to Educate Yourself

Financial education is a powerful tool against making rash and more often damaging financial decisions. Empower yourself by reading articles and listening to investment podcasts to help you act wisely in times of uncertainty.
