The past years have been a bumpy and a challenging period in the stock market. Many markets tried to balance things out amidst the corrections and slow down of economies.
Everyone also tried to ride the waves of the bumpy stock market.
The challenge won’t stop now that it’s 2019 but as passive investors, we are still confident with brighter outlook.
I’d like to say it’s a great time to invest more this 2019 to make more profit in the future.
As a passive investor, I have learned to see more positive things even if equities seem to be idle.
That’s the good thing about being a passive long term investor.
We’re happy when the market is up and we celebrate when the market is down.
Because when the market is up, we sell the stocks that we flip or we lock in gains. When the market is down, we buy more of the stocks we are aiming to sell after 5 years or so.
Why it’s a Great Time to Invest this 2019 to Make More Profit?
It’s a great time to invest this 2019 to make more profit especially if you’re investing blue-chip stocks and your strategy is investing monthly using PCA method because stocks are cheaper.
Last two years, there were many corrections in the market and apparently, because of more FED rate hikes, elections in the Philippines and the surprising winning of Trump as US president, we will likely see more slow trends if not sideways.
It’s not only the financial world that will make corrections, it is also the government. New positions means new adjustments. The Duterte administration has many challenges to meet ahead.
2019 and the Future My Advice…
My advice for fellow passive long term investors and those who want to start stock market investing:
- Celebrate the New Year. Greet friends, share your blessings, and spend quality time with your loved ones. Let your portfolio work for you because it’s the Holidays after all.
- Mix other investments on of your portfolio. Have a mutual fund or UITF.
- Maintain buying stocks monthly. Take this opportunity for you will make millions in the future.
- Be patient and remember you are doing this for the future, not now or not next week.
- Again, maintain buying slowly and monthly, you’re not in a rush.
Few more months and years, the price of the stock you’re investing religiously will skyrocket.
Again, cherish your money and celebrate with your loved ones.
That’s the best thing about being a passive investor, you make millions effortlessly.
Cheers! Happy New Year and Happy Investing!

Hi Ms. Fehl,
First of all, I’d like to thank you for your blog. It has helped me a lot being a newbie in this kind of venture.
I would just like to ask if you have a Simulation for trading stocks? I’m planning to invest in UITF and take a shot at investing by myself too. So practicing before the real trading would be best.
Thank you in advance.
Mam Fehl I have a question:
Regarding the FANTASTIC 5 stocks – are these changing every now and then? I observed that MBT is already in the “SELL” category. Once we sell my MBT shares, what will I replace them with? Thanks!
Hi, yes we replenish new stocks with our F5. We always post an article first about the stock that we sold (MBT in this case) to review the earnings then we change a new stock to replace it on the list. Always check our picks to see the new added stock. I know you’re excited, just be patient. Cheers!
Hi Ms. Fehl,
I have 5 stocks namely, BPI, FGEN, BDO ,JFC and URC. and i can only buy one to two stocks per month depending on the price because i only have 3ooo spare money for stock market investment. Question ko lang is kung ok lang ba yung ginagawa ko?
Thank you.
Hi Ms Fel,
Good afternoon.
Just want to ask, which is better: actively managed equity funds or equity index funds? i have read an online blog by harald baldr that low cost index funds are the best equity funds. i have also read an ebook about investing in US stock market that index funds are better and also recommended by warren buffet. is it also the same case here in PH? are index funds better?
Hope to here from u soon. Thanks!!!
Hi, Ms. Fehl.
Thanks for your daily post. I follow this everyday. Thanks for sharing your insights.
Hi Miss Fehl panu nyu po ba nalalaman ang buy below price ng isang stocks? Highly appreciated po sana kung maeexplain nyu po sakin salamat rin po in advance 🙂
Hi Ms Fehl,
I’m an OFW and a newbie, would like to ask where I can buy stocks online? I have open an investment account with BPI and currently concentrating only on UITF.
Appreciate your help
Hi Ms Fehl
Good day!!
I chanced upon your blog when I googled something about how to get rich.
That’s when I found out that one way is through having passive income through long term investments, such as UITF equity funds offered in banks.
As a newbie, I tried the BDO equity fund last July 2014 and early 2015, BPI and Security Bank Equity fund. I started with the minimum required investment of 10,000 in each UITF. My BDO investment was steadily increasing until it went done sometime in March 2015. As for my BPI and Security bank UITF’s, both have not gained profits since I invested last year but I’m patient and hopeful that this year it will recover and gain profits.
In UITF equity fund, do the fund managers make changes in the composition of the stock portfolio to maximize profits? Do the fund managers also follow ‘Buy below price’ or target price when to sell?
Hope to hear from u soon. Thanks!
Hi! I also invested in BDO equity fund last year and I was quite disappointed when it went down, but I keept it anyway and hoping that sooner and later it will recover.
Good for you. May i ask, how much did u invest in bdo equity fund?my bdo, bpi and security bank equity fund has been recovering last month but started losing again this past few days.i think it has to do with the looming duterte presidency.
Hi! Is it advisable to invest in several equities on Mutual Fund (Philequity, Sunlife, etc)? Moreover, is it also advisable to also add a UITF investment on top of the MF Investments? This given that the person is a long-term investor (at least 5 years).
Good article BTW
My answers are in this page: http://philpad.com/my-first-investment-tips-for-beginners-on-investing-stocks/
Nice follow-up article 🙂 Although since you’ve mentioned there to invest one at a time, personlly how do you determine if it’s time for you to jump and add a new one?
Also, you’ve named at least 3 UITF invesments and 3 Mutual Funds, does that mean you have invested on each of those up to now?
Thanks!
If you have another money you won’t be needing soon, then that’s the time to add a new one. Yes, I have had and still have some of those investments.
Hello Miss Fehl! Ano po ba ang mas maganda, FPH or FGEN?
Hi, Trish. Both are good but it depends on your strategy, objective and the status of the stock right now. The answers will rely on those factors and the trends today.
I am a newbie here and I am already following your magic 10 stocks! I bought FGEN (Fantastic 5) and ICT (Undervalued Stock). I think I’ll stick with these two for now.
If I already accomplished my goal for these two or if my budget increases, I will definitely buy JFC and ALI.
Thank you, Ms. Fehl! You are such a blessing.
You are such a blessing Ms. Fehl!…Thank u!
can i have an excel format for your data? I want to clean it out and start my own data 😀
Ms Fehl,
Happy new year!
Can you please elaborate the “lock in gains”?
Thanks!
Thanks. I think I will publish a post to further explain and give samples for that. See ya!
Thank you mam Fehl.
thank you so much! Fehl.
Happy New Year!
Good day Ms. Fehl!
Pwede ba ako manghingi ng xls file mo used above? Gusto ko lang sana makigamit ng table mong ito. Kahit yung mga formula lang ng mga columns used above. Thanks and more power!
you can try this formula for ROI
=(D2-C2)/C2 where D2 is price today, C2 is Price bought
for Expected Growth
=(G2-C2)/C2 where G2 is the Target Price
Sir Glenn, salamat! try ko itong formula na ito =)
Paano po ma calculate yung total lossed in peso sa total share?thanks
