This post is the second in our series on managing your portfolio more effectively.
We were recently speaking to a DIY investor and found what he had to say extremely interesting. He told us about a time when he used a tip from a newspaper to pick a fund for his ISA and SIPP portfolio.
In this new series of posts we're going to look at how you can manage your investment portfolio more effectively. If you manage your portfolio well, it will play a big part in helping you arrive at your financial goals on time. However, if you neglect your portfolio, your returns will probably suffer and that could result in taking longer than expected to reach your objectives.
In our last few posts we've been looking at how you can gauge the stock market's direction. In this post, we'll conclude this series by looking at how you can spot if the market's about to turn.
Throughout the year, come rain or shine, we love to watch the daily activity of the market’s best stocks. The reason we watch them like a hawk is because they tend to lead the market higher – and lead the market lower – before the general market catches on. This means that they are a very good indicator of which direction the market is likely to head next.
In a recent post, we looked at how it's possible to read the market by using charts.
To recap, a stock chart is a graph that displays the price and volume history of a given security or index over a period of days, months or years. Price and volume charts can help you to see what the professional investors are doing, allowing you the opportunity to follow in the large investors footsteps.
