The Sharpest Minds on Wall Street predicted the S&P500 for 2022 ?

What The sharpest minds on Wall Street predicted for S&P500 In 2022

Goldman Sachs - 5,100

Wells Fargo - 5,200

JP Morgan - 5,050




And guess where it Finished ? at 3,839

Not one close to the experts predictions


The same have happened with Indian markets as the experts predicted that the bull run that started after covid, Will continue forever but you already know what happened


That’s why I say, Pay zero attention to forecasters. ZERO !!

 

One of the worst mistake people can do is follow institutional research to make investment decisions

 

 

Firstly Understand that nobody can predict the market

 

There are millions of variables that can change on an everyday basis, It is impossible for a human, or even for an AI to predict the future

 

on the other hand it is human tendency to seek comfort and the illusion that the future can be predicted gives this comfort, I’m no exception too

 

People spend hours reading these reports from Goldman, JP Morgan, Macquarie, and what not thinking that they are doing something productive, at least I used to do that in my early years


Not just this, there is another sinister angle to stock market Profits.

You should know that in the stock market, one person's profits come from another person's loss


Institutions make a large part of their money from retail losses

Hence, it is in their interest to ensure that retail investors keep losing


So on most occasions, when institutions are telling you to buy, they are likely selling And when they 

are telling you to sell, they are likely buying


then what's the solution then?

 

Should we do the opposite of what they are telling us to do?

Of course No!

 

 

The best course of action is to IGNORE THEM!!

 

Let the sheep read all those reports and spend countless hours googling what is a certain investment bank saying, You just build a system with high risk reward and follow it religiously
