What we have learned:
Our knowledge of when to sell and how to buy have greatly increased during our
experience with this project. While researching and examining the stocks we wanted to choose
we noticed trends and occurrences that allowed us to make smart decisions when investing.
Additionally, we learned that the best way to invest is to diversify a portfolio through many
different industries. This allowed us to minimize potential losses and maximize our gains within
our respected investments. Furthermore, determining how to concentrate on riding trends in the
market created an easy way for us to pin-point an excellent line of growth within our portfolio.
Through the many weeks we have been working on this assignment our group determined that
having a medium to small sized portfolio actually minimizes the losses in the short run.
Diversifying too much for the short term gain can be detrimental to the overall success of a
portfolio. It is true that diversifying for the long term investment is always the best thing to do. A
medium to large sized portfolio will most likely beat a smaller one in the long run. Putting faith
in a small number of stocks can be risky, but the pay off came through for us and we ended up
growing exponentially because of it.
