It is always easy to look at any investing decision from hindsight. When we hold off on buying a stock or sell a stock at the wrong time, it can feel crappy when looking at the loss. Every investor will somehow face losses in one way or another when the stock market indexes slide $Dow Jones Industrial Average (.DJI.US)$, $Nasdaq Composite Index (.IXIC.US)$, $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ or stocks tank for whatever reasons. No investor will escape losses, but every investor...

It can be challenging to know how best to invest in Chinese stocks right now with the recent biggest jump and the higher risks associated with the market. While Chinese stocks may offer huge growth opportunities in a massive market, it is more suited for investors with a generous appetite for risk. Even then, greater caution needs to be exercised when picking Chinese stocks as they tend to be highly volatile with greater regulatory challenges. One good way is perhaps to invest only in high quality Chinese companies $Alibaba (BABA.US)$, $JD.com (JD.US)$, $PDD Holdings (PDD.US)$, $Tencent (TCEHY.US)$ that are both big and visible with the most solid standing. Still, it might be challenging for many to invest calmly in Chinese stocks as China's business market is comparatively opaque and more prone to regulatory pressures. Furthermore, it may not be easy to digest the news coming out of China these days. For those investors who are concerned that Chinese stocks are too vulnerable to ever-present risks and uncertainties, investing in the larger ones with economic moats to succeed in the longer term would be a safer choice.

It is a good practice to examine insider sales for companies that are of interest to investors. Some occasional selling is routine, as many insiders obtain a huge portion of their compensation in the form of stock and therefore have to sell shares to generate cash. While insiders unloading a large portion of their shares can be seen as a red flag, the massive insider selling by CEOs of companies like $Microsoft (MSFT.US)$, $Amazon (AMZN.US)$ do not necessarily indicate that the companies are in trouble. CEOs may sell their shares from time to time for personal reasons that are unrelated to a company's short term or long term prospects. The higher multiple, together with other macro headwinds like supply chain constraints, inflation and the Omicron variant could have convinced the CEOs to sell off some of their shares. In general, investors should be more concerned with insider sales of struggling companies rather than hugely successful ones $Microsoft (MSFT.US)$, $Amazon (AMZN.US)$. Even the massive selling may not indicate that the long term prospects of the company have shifted. As such, it does not make sense for investors to sell off $Microsoft (MSFT.US)$ just because of the recent huge insider sale by the CEO. Instead, investors should pay more attention to the long term growth opportunities in its expansion of the ecosystem and cloud growth.

Having a supportive family and strong family bonding that I am grateful for help to foster a free spirit in me to pursue my own investing journey. Before I start investing, the initial question that comes into my mind is whether or not it will be a great investment. Almost always I would wonder if I could make any gains from it. While these are useful questions, they may not necessarily be the most important ones. Instead I am able to embark on my investing journey by asking these questions. My approach to investing prioritises buying and holding high quality stocks for the long haul. Rather than letting any short term price fluctuations affect my investing decisions, I focus the most on the business fundamentals of those companies which I invest in. By examining my risk tolerance, I am able to understand how much volatility I am comfortable with. In view of market uncertainty, I am prepared to hold my stock picks through market volatility and target more on long term returns. Without a doubt, it is impossible that all my stock picks will be winners. Instead, I remain vested in the winning stocks as winning companies normally continue winning. I am grateful that I have the opportunity to spend enough time investing and reflecting on my experiences, which have helped me to learn more along the way. One of the most valuable things I have learnt is the importance of patience in deciding when to buy and sell a stock. Investing is not a race for me as I am looking more to capture reasonable returns over the long term. I am grateful that I could take my time and pay close attention to what I am thinking along the way.

During non-trading days, I would use some time to do research and analyse stocks as this could help me find ideal investment opportunities. Stock research is useful as it would enable me to assess a company to decide whether it is worth adding or holding to my long term stock portfolio. Online resources would be convenient as most companies' websites now feature an investor information section with financial statements, annual reports, press releases and answers to frequently asked questions. Gathering my stock research materials like financial statements, company announcements and news as well as analyst reports would help me to review the company's financials. It is practical and effective to narrow down to what to look out for. Being a long term investor favouring the value investing approach, I would zero into the company's sales, net income, EPS, P/E, ROA and ROE ratios. Doing so would allow me to be familiarised with the financial health of the company. Besides these financial metrics, I would attempt to find out more on whether the company has sustainable competitive advantages, good management team, and understand the overall industry trends. It would be important to put the research into context, to see how the company fits into the bigger picture by comparing the financial numbers and key metrics to industry averages and other companies in the same industry. By doing sufficient research and analysing stocks, I would be able to identify stocks trading at a discount to their intrinsic value, and therefore more likely to gain reasonable returns in the long term. The more I know about a stock's value, the more I could make informed decisions on investing.
