AAPL
📈 Selling Apple stock too early after a 100% gain resulted in missing out on subsequent 900% returns, highlighting the error of cutting winners short.
⏳ Holding quality investments like Apple long-term, rather than trying to time market peaks and troughs or securing small profits, often leads to significantly greater wealth accumulation.
💡 Warren Buffett’s successful investment in Apple in 2016, when it wasn’t a market darling, demonstrates the value of contrarian thinking and buying quality companies when overlooked.
@adriarivero:
“Now, imagine María, who in 2010 bought Apple at $20 per share. In 2012, the stock rose to $40, doubling her money. María thinks, ‘I’ve already made 100%, better sell and secure profits.’ This is another classic error, in this case, wanting to run too fast. You don’t let your seeds bear fruit. Today, Apple is worth more than $230 per share. María missed out on a 900% gain because she sold too soon… Lesson from Buffett: Your purchase price doesn’t matter. The only criterion for selling a stock is its future… If an investment is working, let it keep growing. Don’t sell just because you’ve already gained 50% or 100%… In 2016, Apple wasn’t fashionable in the stock market, and Buffett bought shares when nobody was paying attention. Today, Apple has been one of Berkshire Hathaway’s most profitable investments.”
