Riding the Waves of the Stock Market – what’s your Goal?

It’s been 7 months since we started this site, sharing tips, strategies, stock picks and investing insights. If you’ve been here from the beginning, I’m sure you have seen the ups and downs of the stock market.

If you’re one of the newbies, maybe you’re excited, thrilled or still a little bit worried if you’re going on the right path.

You’re on the right path if you have enough knowledge of what you’re doing and if you have a roadmap and if you have a goal and you are following it no matter how idle, scary and crazy the stock market is.

Because the truth is, the stock market is like a big sea.

Sometimes it’s calm, sometimes it’s wavy or scary but this sea will lead you to your destination: PROFIT, lots of it or millions of it.

All you have to do is ride the waves of it. Learn, surf and leave until you have already reached your GOAL.

Why do I always mention GOAL? Because this is all nonsense if we don’t have it. We invest in the stock market not because we have reasons, but because we have a GOAL.

Maybe your reasons are:

To become multi-millionaire.

To make more money to build a new business.

To retire wealthier.

For the future of your kids or family.

To travel the world.

Those are great but what is your goal? When would you stop investing?

Someone told me her target is 5 years. At least she has a goal 🙂

A friend told me she’ll stop at 40 and just spend the money she made to travel. Well that’s cool.

Someone told me she’ll stop when her portfolio becomes 10 million. That’s a goal. 🙂

What about you my friend, what’s your goal?

Let me share some of our Targets here using Magic 10 Stock Picks:

Fantastic 5 Stocks:

Our F5 are starting to climb back again. MER is very close to our Target Price and we’re excited to lock in gains when it reached its TP even though the Greece issue is obviously causing some blows in the market.

In case you’re wondering, we left some months blank for some of the data coz we want to be able to come up closer to real profit as we don’t buy stocks when they exceed the BBP.

We made a total of 41.38% gains or 4.14% taking into account the 10 stocks.

ALI, BDO, URC, JFC, SM, we believe in these stocks so much. Let me mention again that we don’t flip these stocks because our target for them is a Target Period, not Target Price.

So the lower the price of these stocks today, the better opportunity to buy. If your goal is more than 5 years, these stocks are great to invest with. More posts coming up about these stocks so stay tuned.

  2. Ms. Fehl, good morning. Another question please, how will I collect my profit? Or how will I know that I am actually gaining? Will COL deposit a real cash into my given bank account? Sorry, hope you can enlighten this to me. Thank you.

    • Hi April:

      I am also using COL. Once you sold your shares successfully your gains will reflect in your COL account balance. By that, you can already request for withdrawal of funds so they can credit to your registered bank account. Withdrawal of Funds form are located at the forms section of your account.

      Hi Ms. Fehl:

      Please correct me if I am wrong. Shoutout to your B5. Now I know which stocks should be considered as long term stocks!

      Regards,

      Ryan

  3. Hi Ms. Fehl, would just like to know, I have started investing since April or May first week if I remember it right. But since then my portfolio has always been on red color. Am I doing something wrong or am I missing something? I am on investment side not of trading. Please help. Thanks!

    • It’s very normal since you have just started and the market is going down and up a little but down more. Looking at things now, I think it would take some months to see some long ladders again. No worries, PSE experts are still confident about PSEI to reach 8,300. Cheers!

  4. Hello fehl, I’m glad you are updating your site. But i have some suggestion. The text in your article is quite big and it is bold. It is not so good in the eyes. Can you return it to the normal format? This is just a suggestion 🙂

    • Hi. Thank you for the feedback. Yes, our site has new layout. It’s faster to load now and I like the colors. I forgot to change the font size and it’s fine now I think. Let me know 🙂 Thanks!

      • Hi Ms. Fehl. The font still looks like it is in bold. The former font seems better and more readable. Thanks! 🙂

        • Hi. I already changed it and it looks ok on my end. You must clear your browser’s cache to see the change 🙂 Cheers!
