Non-Retirement

For 2H of the Year

My profit goal this year is $770 per week.

8 weeks so far this 2H of year so $770 x 8 = $6.1K Target Profit YTD

Actual 8 weeks 2H YTD Profit = $7.4K.

Analysis: $7.4K > $6.1K

Conclusion: MRS Beating the Target

Well, that was a terrible last week for me. Naipit ako for 5 days sa stock split that cost me $600 profit. So instead of up $600 I have to settle for zero gain.

No book. Gastos lang. Read online and youtube search instead. Same lang naman sinasabi.

 

Buy Mutual Fund or ETF every paycheck, say 6%-10% of salary. Up is good but down is even better kasi nag-a-accumulate ka pa. I did this for 15 years. I concentrated on my work for 15 years, got better pay as time went on, hence higher contribution from my paycheck even if it is the same 6%-10% of salary.

 

 

There is only 1 ETF in Philippines right now. First Metro. https://grit.ph/etf/

The hardest step is the first step. Alot wanted to start investing in stocks then they fade away from this board.

[MRROUGHSEX]

As you may have noticed, I have 2 accounts -- Retirement and Non-Retirement.

 

Retirement is 90% equity, 10% bonds.

 

Non-retirement varies based on my gut feel but with an end goal of beating the market by at least 4% each year. I am only able to do this because I am semi-retired, hence, I could watch the stocks every now and then on a somewhat daily basis.

[MRROUGHSEX]

Break-even lang for the past week.

Non-Retirement

My 2020 Scoreboard as of 20200831:

Year-to-Date gain of $37.6K or Php1.88.

Non-Retirement

For 2H of the Year

My profit goal this year is $770 per week.

9 weeks so far this 2H of year so $770 x 9 = $6.9K Target Profit YTD

Actual 9 weeks 2H YTD Profit = $7.6K.

Analysis: $7.6K > $6.9K

Conclusion: MRS Beating the Target

Guys, I lost $4K today or Php200K. This is the equivalent of 1 month's worth of trading gain slayed in 1 day. Brutal? Yes.

 

BUT, I am happy. Coz you know what that means? Yessir, Discounts Galore.

 

Namiss ko na itong Discounts. This is really where I earn. Buying at cheaper prices.

 

As always, I will document here how I recover that $4K loss in the hope of curing guys who have fear of losing money in stocks.

 

The plan is simple: Buy more when discounts are high.

 

Cheers!

Guys here is the loss of $4.2K in one day.

 

From 38.7.

 

 

 

 

To 34.5

 

 

 

Yehey!! Celebration! Celebration! Remember our philoshopy! We look at losses at happier times in long-term investing because it is opportunity to buy low. Anytime you get a chance to buy low is a big boost to your future eanings.

 

And as it just so happens, today is paycheck day for me so give me the Discounts!

[MRROUGHSEX]

Patuloy pa rin Discounts today guys.

 

So my total loss so far went up to -$5.8K from yesterday's -$4.2K.

 

But with some selling of good performing stocks and buying of cheapened stocks, IF the market goes back up to its highest point today, not only will I gain all -$5.8K losses BUT I will also GAIN +$4.0K.

 

So every day na tumatagal itong pag recover, the more my GAIN will increase kasi the more opportunity to buy at cheaper prices.

 

Let the GOOD TIMES ROLL!!

[MRROUGHSEX]

Just to put things in context, my biggest loss was during the 2009 armageddon where I lost $30K or Php1.5 Million within 1.5 year, representing 40% of my savings at the time.

 

I was depressed because it ate up my money for downpayment for the house I am going to buy that year. I thought with the market already down big, if I put my "saved downpayment" money into stock, I could earn some from it. Little did I know it was an armageddon year and stocks were just going down every day, week, month.

 

Just this year, I lost $25K within 1.5 months (!) due to Covid pandemic from Feb-Mar.

 

Having experioed big losses like that AND knowing that I recovered all of it over time makes me this kind of investor I am today.

 

Buy and buy. You only start selling when you age to 55 and it is a gradual sell of say, 10% a year of your portfolio until it is down to say 40% stocks 60% cash.
