Top 13 Stock Market Investing Mistakes (Avoid These, Improve Returns)

When starting out investing in the stock market, there are many common mistakes that beginner (and even experienced) investors make. What are they?

In this video, I cover 13 investing mistakes that many people, particularly beginners, make in the stock market.

Some of these you might not agree with, and some of these may surprise you as being considered "mistakes."

Generally, the mistakes/topics will cover:

1) When are you selling your stocks?
2) What kinds of stocks are you buying?
3) Are you betting against the market?
4) What types of trade fees/commissions do you pay?
5) How the improvements in trading technology hurt returns
6) Investing in a small portfolio
7) Risk-averse or risk-seeking?
8) What are you doing when the market crashes?
9) "Investments" to avoid
10) What your shares represent...
11) Should you hire an investment advisor?

There's a lot I discuss in this video, and there's certainly more than can be said, but I hope you took something positive away from it.

Also, the points in this video are strictly related to long-term investing in the stock market, not actively trading.

Please leave a comment below this video if you have any questions, or if you'd like to add some of your own. As always, I'd love to hear from you/chat with you.
