Description

In today’s financial landscape, it’s easy for investors to get caught up in popular catchphrases like “They're not making any more land” or “Buy the dip”.

Bruce Jenks, our Financial Adviser from our Hastings office, warns that when these phrases replace critical thinking, investors may make decisions based on hype instead of fundamental market truths.

Catchphrases can be appealing, but they often oversimplify complex decisions and overlook individual circumstances. Successful investing requires discipline that goes beyond catchy phrases.

Check out the article by our CEO, Nick Stewart, that was published in Hawke’s Bay Today and NZ Herald Online: When Catchphrases Replace Common Sense: The Dangerous Allure of Investment Folklore
