Daily Gains Letter (www.DailyGainsLetter.com) an e-letter by Lombardi Publishing Corporation, a 26-year-old consumer publisher that has served over one million customers in 141 countries, cautions investors that having a bias, whether it’s aimed at the Affordable Care Act, military and defense companies, or certain consumer good firms, can make investors miss out on any number of long-term growth opportunities.“One of the basic rules that investors should follow when it comes to portfolio management is to not have a bias,” says financial analyst Moe Zulfiqar. “What biases eventually do is either hinder investors from making better decisions or cause investors to not even recognize an opportunity that can take their portfolio to new heights.”
For example, many investors are biased toward to the Affordable Care Act, more commonly referred to as “Obamacare.” Because of their staunch opposition, those investors will avoid exposing their retirement portfolio to any individual stock or exchange-traded fund that generates revenue from the health care sector.
Since the Affordable Care Act was signed into law by the president back in 2010 and upheld by the Supreme Court in June 2012, many health care companies and exchange-traded funds have outpaced the S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average. As a result, Zulfiqar explains, investors that have held a bias toward Obamacare have missed out on a number of opportunities to grow their portfolio significantly. With the Affordable Care Act officially launched on October 1, 2013, unbiased investors will have additional opportunities for growth.
To build a strong retirement portfolio, Zulfiqar says, investors need to filter out their investing biases and perform exhaustive due diligence. Once they have formed an objective opinion, they should implement proper money management techniques.
“When it comes to building a long-term portfolio, investors can avoid having a bias by simply looking at the cold, hard facts: examining the numbers, evaluating the information, and assessing the situation,” Zulfiqar adds.
Founded in 1986, Lombardi Publishing Corporation, which has served over one million customers in 141 countries, is one of the largest consumer information publishers in the world. For more information on Lombardi Publishing Corporation and Daily Gains Letter, visit www.lombardipublishing.com.
