What is Peter Lynch’s investing strategy<\/a>? What kind of stocks should you buy, according to Lynch?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peter Lynch is a legendary investor and former manager of the Fidelity Magellan Fund<\/a>. In his book One Up on Wall Street<\/em>, Lynch shares his advice on how to win in the stock market. His formula is simple: build a portfolio of stocks based on your risk tolerance, ignore hype, and trust your own judgment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s look at Peter Lynch\u2019s advice for stock market investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

1. Buy as Many Stocks as Companies You Understand<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Lynch believes you should buy as many stocks as you feel you have special knowledge in or which you\u2019ve thoroughly researched and have faith in<\/strong>. For instance, if you work in the automotive industry, you might have special knowledge about a car manufacturer, or you\u2019ve done extensive research on a new coffee shop chain that\u2019s opened in your area, and you feel confident about its prospects. You\u2019d thus buy stocks in both. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: There\u2019s another compelling reason to buy stocks in only companies you<\/em> have special knowledge about: Advisors and analysts who claim to understand more than you do about a company usually obtain their information from the company itself. These company performance forecasts are 1) often merely estimates<\/a> and 2) often inflated to make the company look good.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want a specific number, Lynch recommends acquiring between three and 10 stocks. It\u2019s advantageous to own multiple stocks because the more you own, the more likely you are to snag a tenfold increaser. Further, when you own multiple stocks, you can shift your money around between them, which we\u2019ll talk about in a coming section. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: Others disagree with Lynch\u2019s stock quantity recommendation, instead advising you to acquire at least 20 stocks<\/a>. While Lynch argues you should own multiple stocks to increase your chances of finding a tenfold increaser, others argue your actual goal should be to diversify your portfolio<\/a> to mitigate risk, and therefore the more stocks you own, the more likely you are to end up profiting.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Build Your Portfolio Based on Your Risk Tolerance<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To create a portfolio you feel comfortable with, take into account the risk and gain associated with each stock type, recommends Lynch. Then, acquire stock types that give you a risk vs. gain ratio you can live with. The risk versus gain ratio for each company type is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Low risk, low gain: <\/strong>Slow-growth companies<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Low risk, moderate gain: <\/strong>Dependable companies<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Low risk, high gain: <\/strong>Hidden-treasure companies (provided you\u2019re sure of the company\u2019s assets) and cycle companies (provided you understand the company\u2019s cycles)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

High risk, high gain: <\/strong>Fast-growth companies or underdog companies<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Understand When to Buy and Sell<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Lynch claims you should buy stocks when you feel 1) the company\u2019s strong and 2) that you\u2019re paying a fair price for what you\u2019re getting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, there are specific occasions when stocks come at a bargain. The first is at the end of the year, when companies sell off many of their stocks and you can snap them up cheap. The second is whenever the stock market\u2019s doing badly. Though you might be tempted to sell at such times to minimize your losses, counteract your instincts and buy while stocks are cheap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it comes to selling stock, try to avoid selling too soon whenever possible. Lynch lists many instances in which he took poor advice and sold a stock that continued growing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Re-evaluate Stocks and Shift Money Sensibly Between Them<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Lynch recommends that you sensibly move funds between stocks as company situations change, and that you maintain approximately the same distribution of stock types in your porfolio.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For instance, you might wish to maintain three dependable, two fast-growth, and one slow-growth company in your portfolio. Then, if you believe a cycle company has hit its financial peak and that its fortunes will soon reverse, sell that stock and buy stock in a different<\/em> cycle company that\u2019s about to be on the upswing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Take Your Own Counsel on How to Manage Your Portfolio<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Lynch\u2019s final advice on managing your portfolio<\/a> is to avoid selling just because prognosticators recommend it. Instead, rely more on your research and your continued check-ins on the company to inform your selling decisions. Only when you know specifically that an external circumstance will negatively affect the company should you do something about it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Similarly, don\u2019t heed platitudes or beliefs about when to buy and sell (things like, \u201cIt\u2019s always darkest before the dawn,\u201d or \u201cIf it\u2019s this low, it can\u2019t possibly go any lower\u201d). There simply is never a single rule that works in every circumstance, so you\u2019re better off using your knowledge of the company acquired through research. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: Peter Lynch\u2019s advice to ignore hype and go your own way as an investor was largely ignored in the lead-up to the 2007 and 2008 financial crisis. According to Michael Lewis in The Big Short<\/em><\/a>, <\/em>major Wall Street investment firms fell prey to the contagious excitement about mortgage-backed securities<\/a> and suffered tremendous losses when the housing bubble<\/a> burst. Meanwhile, a few iconoclasts who did their basic research and refused to follow the herd profited from Wall Street\u2019s greed and ignorance<\/a>. In this case, the iconoclasts knew not about an external circumstance that would profoundly affect the stock market, but about an internal <\/em>circumstance: the risky behaviors of countless Wall Street firms.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
