Dear Colleague-investor. All we errors even if our name is Warren Buffett or George Soros. But when large investors such as Buffett and Soros make mistakes, the lessons for the rest of us are so much more interesting! Both get a lot more decisions right that wrong. Buffett took over the direction of how the world 'richest man s this year (2008) with a fortune of $ 62bn, while Soros was able to pull last year inside $ 2.9bn as head of fund management alternative. And the new books that are now exiting have launched some light on some errors. "fouthcoming book Vahan Janjigian and Steve Forbes; Even Buffett Isn 't Perfect" isn' t it supposed enough tension until the promise of it iconoclastica 'title s. Conclude that Warren Buffet is one of the largest investors – if not the largest – of all times. But identifying a problem of Appeal with Buffett 's style of investment. Judges above stocks too long without regard to price. Buffett once said, "we have no interest in selling dell'alcun way trade good that Berkshire (Buffett 'the company financial conglomerate s) owns and we' re very reluctant to sell if the trade were producing at least some cash and work had respectable relations. " For Buffett, its investments are almost like a union. Meanwhile, Vahan Janjigian and Steve Forbes calls with an old principle, "no one ever married stocks." These attitudes can be reconciled because Buffett sees all investment decisions as if're buying a business, rather than simply buying lle action and take the pali very large. Once invested, is married to trade, not only the action. For most of it 's probably not so! If a trade is very good overpriced, most people studying the possibility to sell it. The emerging discipline of Finance of behavior – using psychology experimantal to explore investment decisions – suggests that much more mistakes are made in the decision when to sell lle action that the arena much more widely discussed decision when buying. One of Buffett 'large stock selezionamenti s were Coca-Cola, who led all the way until it' s short limitation as the world 'largest company s over market value, A distinction has reached a little more than a decade ago. But still keep it, even if the coke has been surpassed since then by many rivals. For Buffett, this could have meaning. But the rest of us should develop a discipline sale. When lle action have been overpriced, we should sell. With regard Soro 's failures, he' s been honest enough to tell us about them. His next book, The new paradigm for Markets "Financial;, the causes of the crisis accreditation includes a diary of investment that began earlier this year. Soros gave his prognosis for 2008 and explained its investment strategy to capitalize on it. Then it updated every 2 weeks. The synchronization was lucky: Soro 's the diary took him through until sell-off of Bear Stearns in March. Soros was the first great "macro" overall; fund manager who makes big bets-sharing well. Wagered the most famous that the sterling would have had to devalue in September 1992, forcing the government BRITISH leave the exchange rate mechanism. Funds macro – which is a fund management alternative that specializes in strategies designed to profit from macroeconomic events planned. (Macroeconomics is a branch of the economy that deals with the performance, structure and behaviour of a national or regional). — Did well in the first quarter of this year, being an average of about 10% while many other investors have lost serious money. But Soros reveals in his diary that was only plan for the period. It is not able to make money even if it was exactly correct in the sense that it has assessed the global markets. In January, he predicted that the crisis of accreditation was divided but that the acute phase would be contained because the central bank would provide liquidity provisional. And that 's exactly what happened. He also saw a bubble in China. Thus began the year to bet on the dollar and on stocks dell'europeo and the United States for fall. All calls correct! As has been unable to make money? Synchronization is part of it. It was very invested in India and China on the theory that the bubble was in its early stages. But Indian stocks fell 20% in some weeks during the month of January, while the compound of Shanghai is now half from its peak in October last year. Then there was Bear Stearns. His prediction General Financial Services of the United States was mysterious correct. But Friday, March 14, bought the action of Bear Stearns closed that day to $ 54. The Federal Reserve announced that financing emergency and he has assumed that Bear Stearns would be sold off at auction all'più high bidder during the weekend. Instead, the bear was forced in the arms of JP Morgan for $ 2 a part. And Soros may fear much worse. Its shares of bears have been protected very well in the credit market. But by March 20, his fund was "under water for the year", albeit at a very low level that many others. There is a belief that periods of turbulence are times opportunity to those who see the big picture. And that describes perfectly George Soros. But even if it may not be able to make money due to light errors in sync and in light misreadings of different situations, the lessons for the rest of us is calmando!
