Do not look for investments!
I have done better when I was not actively looking for investment. I waited for investments to come to me rather than go chasing after them.
I read in Howard mark's book & experienced over the period. You tend to get better buys when a lot of people are selling. An opportunist buys things because they’re offered at bargain prices. There’s nothing special about buying when prices aren’t low.
Following interesting companies for years without buying a single stock is rewarding in the long run.
Fear of missing the opportunity is irrational in investing. You do not have to be the first to spot a company. You can be 100th one & still make money.
