I agreed that the market is always right, by juz looking at the charts. Everybody can has a thousand reasons that the economy is still in recession, jobless rate is still so high, exports and imports are low, people are not buying and spending etc. USA is printing money everyday to loan it to the banks, but stock markets still goes up and it has been going up since Mar! At least there is a support that the market will not goes down to the time when it is around Jan to Mar 2009. Although it is now on the uptrend, it does not mean economy is recover, juz that people is getting use to all the negative news, and solutions are being pass out, but it is not dissolve yet. USA has print trillions of money but where do previously the money in the Bank goes to ? The money cannot juz disappear.

The market is not always right as it is manipulated by BBs, etc. It is right only at long terms. | ||||

More importantly, the choice must be based only a good market clue ... It is the subtle clues, not the overwhelming sentiment, as revealed by the market action that make the market 'right'...  |

Yes, the market is always right. However, an investor has his own choice whether to follow the sentiments of the market. When the crowd is rushing in to buy stocks pushing up stock prices into a stock market high, the investor has his choice whether to follow the crowd to buy into stocks or instead sell stocks. Similarly, when the crowd is selling down at the stock market low, an investor also has his choice to follow and sell or buy into stocks instead. In conclusion, market is always right by displaying the stock prices. However, the investor has his own independent judgement whether to carry out buy or sell decisions or do nothing at all. Nobody can force the investor to carry out his investing decisions. A wise investor is calm and is not controlled by the market actions and always carries out only decisions that have very high probabilities of reaping great returns. Otherwise, he does nothing. Dothing nothing is also a decision in itself. For example, should one still buy stocks at this moment after the rally has taken place? The market is right. The rally has taken place, no doubt about it. However, an investor has his choice whether to continue to buy at current prices, sell at current prices or do nothing at all. No matter what, one cannot predict the future moods of the market in the next few months. However, anyone can easily see that the market is going to rise further than this given a long enough time horizon. So, if one thinks current stock valuations are too high already, by all means stop buying anymore. If one thinks current valuations are still cheap, go ahead and buy somemore. Somewhere along the line, valuations are going to be overpriced, then make sure one does not repeat again the same mistake of buying too high and regreting when next bear arrives again to test one's judgement of valuations. The higher the stock prices go, the higher the risk of making loss and the lower the rate of returns if one buys too high. This is simple old investing principle (buy low and sell high) (In between, do nothing). |

The market is always right means what happens is the market itself. How can it be wrong? Just ride through where the market leads you. In the market not everything behaves according to fundamentals. That is the way it is. | ||||

The market is always right... Which means to say, for example, if as long as the market shows it keeps on rising, then no one must argue with that fact, simply because it is a fact. The masses can be still immersed in bouts of recession fear, but if the market thinks otherwise, then we must listen to it...

100% agree. I don't trade in companies which have a sword over their heads, ready to fall anytime no matter how attractive their share px or brand name looks. This means I accept smaller profits but to date no losses... live to fight another day!
