@AmitKup Hi again Amit! I've been constantly worried about the 'big crash' which some of the people I watch have been predicting since around 2008. Since then I've watched the markets go from heights to heights, meanwhile I've underinvested out of fear that the huge systemic collapse is just around the corner.
Looking at your stats, there's only 2020 with a small loss, and the rest are profitable. I wanted to ask how you approach this. I look at potential war on the horizon, or commercial real estate collapse, or many other systemic threats i hear about from the people i watch and I'm at all times thinking "Well this is a risky time to invest in anything - the smart money seems to be getting out of the markets right now". But then, I don't know how true that all is... With your portfolio specifically, there's Trump talking about 'drill baby drill' and talking about how he's going to drastically affect the oil price.
I know it's a hassle to answer these things, but I want to show how you guys differ from my constant worry without a plan :) How do you approach the potential for sudden massive shifts in the market? Would you short things, or withdraw from the markets? (I don't mean oil specifically, I mean this more generally) Or do you approach the whole thing so differently that I'm asking the wrong questions :)
If you don't want me to include this question OR your answer in a video by the way, just say so, and I'll absolutely not feature it. It's a genuine question I have so better to have a real answer than more content. I could just say 'an un-named source who i trust" or some reporter type thing :)
Thanks, Tom... Show More

Hi Thomas,
Thank you for your questions. There are a few of them, so let me address them one by one.
In terms of market timing/crashes, you're right that some investors have been sitting on the sidelines for years and have missed out on significant potential gains by doing so. The way I think about... Show More

you are spending much time debating how you can secure 20-25% annual return and you feel happy if you succeed it. However, if you look to market outperformed traders you'll see 3-4 of them that exceeded 50% during 2024. Especially, the Greek Ntomeniko Lagos achieved a return of 78,55% in 2023 and 66,22%...
