To succeed long-term, not only do you need a sound strategy, but you must also be able to follow the strategy throughout the market’s emotional roller-coaster ride. Gut reactions, prevailing markets beliefs, and conflicting views of market pundits are just some of the elements that put an emotional spin on the decision-making process.
