Institutional investing is built on an inherent imbalance: liabilities that stretch for centuries and assets that move with every cycle. The pursuit of permanence lies in bridging this gap – generating steady outcomes despite volatility, flawed frameworks, and imperfect signals.

🧐 In the words of legendary investor Peter Lynch, “Know what you own, and know why you own it.” This simple yet powerful advice reminds us that investing without understanding is just speculation. When markets get volatile, uncertainty about your holdings often leads to panic selling. ❗️But if you’ve done the work and understood the business model, the financials, and the role of that asset in your portfolio — you can hold with confidence and avoid emotional mistakes. Clarity about why you own something is just as important. Is it for growth, income, diversification, or protection? When your investment has a clear purpose in your strategy, short-term noise becomes less intimidating. In the end, knowledge is what separates disciplined investors from gambler. #MarketWisdom

Active investing offers flexibility and responsiveness, while passive strategies provide discipline and consistency. Both approaches work, but each says something different about you as an investor.

Read the full article and discover which approach reflects the kind of investor you are. https://lnkd.in/eBNkJcv5

💡 “The investor’s chief problem - and even his worst enemy - is likely to be himself” - Benjamin Graham Morningstar’s latest research agrees Ben! Over the past decade, US funds returned 8.5% p.a., yet the average investor only earned 7.3% p.a.. That missing 1.2% each year wasn’t about fees or access — it was lost to poor timing and emotional decisions. The hardest part of investing isn’t picking the fund. It’s managing behaviour. At Rising Tide Financial, we coach our clients to close this gap - helping them stay disciplined, focused, and on track.
