Thinking about investing;

Thinking about investing ;

Correlation doesn't equal causation...On Wall Street like many other industries there is a tendency for the conscientious to pronounce a knee jerk causal relationship between the specific events or data point of the day and then to take comfort in a particular action in the stock market. Equity Markets react too many variables, both perceived and concrete. Long term investors should be very cautious in accepting these causal relationships because over time the links often prove tenuous at best. It is good to remain skeptical of any conscientious in causal relationships because they often prove inaccurate. The point being that these artificial causalities can often influence your investment decisions creating faulty premises and failed investments.

The tendency of us mere mortals to think in a purely linear fashion and make assumptions that the rate of change we see before our eyes to day will remain the same indefinitely. This causes investors to make assumptions about what drives the market. Investors often make this mistake when they want to buy a stock that has gone up a lot. Over time the rate of change fluctuates and as they like to say around here past performance is no indication of future performance.
