Looking ahead !
There are two characteristics of the stock market that
vary sharply with the way the average investor thinks.
(1) The stock market is a "discounting" mechanism.
The market is always looking ahead, which means that
current stock prices are not really based on today's
facts, but rather on perceptions about the future.
The average investor is often not looking out far
enough. Instead, he is enthralled with the past.
In stock market parlance, old news.
(2) The stock market is dynamic. It is always
changing due to the input of new information.
The average investor tends to cling to the static.
He or she is slow to let go of past concepts and to
adapt to change, which requires letting go of
the old and adjusting to the new.
