It means you swing maybe 100 times (20 times at-bat in a baseball game), make 100 decisions to invest in a stock in your life. If you thus ration yourself, you are bound to investigate more thoroughly.

I certainly have sinned against that, but I have had three-year periods when I didn't invest in anything because I didn't find anything that I really liked.

I think it would be a good rule if one had he willpower to stick to it. It was not spelled out, as I remember, but I would think, if you have dividends or savings accumulating, you can buy more of what you already have.

Obviously, this rule was not meant for daytraders ! Nor TAs. But show me a TA who made and kept 1 % of what Warren Buffett did.
