Great video as ever Sasha! Would be really interesting to see a video on how you value stocks (on excel) similar to what you have done in previous videos.

[@georgesealy4706]

I am an income investor. My goal is to increase my income every year. Most of my stocks have developed over the long term. They gradually increased in value, and they have returned dividends year over year. That is my focus, and it has worked well. I am not into growth companies except in the short term. For those I usually sell short term covered calls to again create income.

[@MichaelPlant70]

For me, the question remains to be that unless you have an idea of what that price should be, you can't make an informed decision on when to sell, and I still don't have a relatively simple way to calculate that. If anyone has a template that they'd be willing to share, I'd be very grateful!

This is what ive been dooing for years and i think its such an underrated strategy. Very essy for mental aswell.

[@ashleybankscoaching]

Agree

[@arigutman]

Same objectives, sure, to get the highest possible return, but I’d argue there are a vast more amount of long term value investors than traders.. take a look at some of the worlds most wealthiest individuals and go figure, they fall under the investment category. From there, they are typically in it for the longer hall and invested into high quality growth plays.. Buffett says it best with his buying a farm analogy in that you wouldn’t buy a farm to sell it by next week… but you buy a farm to grow crops, for maybe even generations of wealth.. magic is in the formula: patience + consistency = wealth!

[@CJ-111]

Being in a fanclub is spot on. So you can tell other people that you invest in a specific thing

[@josephbrennan370]

Very true

[@pedronoronha8385]

"You only make money when you sell" - that is a very wrong statement, sr. Dividends are the answer for that. I think that you forgot to compare companies of value versus companies of growth. J&J is a company of value, they own a very large portion of the market. You will not see their shares skyrocketing. But you will receive dividends and feel secure to hold their shares for a long time because we know (by many factors) that they won't break. Tesla is very different. They are a growth company, they will not give you dividends because they re-invest the profit. But, one day, they will not be able to sell cars as much as they do. So they will give dividends. The real secret is: build a portfolio that has both types of companies so you can gain value from both. One day, they should all give you dividends and you won't need to sell any shares.

[@stuartspink76]

I bought 200 shares in Lucid (bought at $19.40), soon as I hit just over 100% profit I sold half..... I have faith Lucid will do great things, but its still better knowing now I am doing it relatively risk free and can invest my stake again else where..

[@tintuu6546]

You’re always opening my eyes and these not only apply to investment but anything we do in life

[@steffmay7969]

What about dividends? Holding a stock for the dividend. Agree with growth stocks having an exit strategy makes sense otherwise you never know when to sell. Tesla to $3k, who's left to buy?!

[@SashaYanshin]

Thanks Julian! Appreciate that!

[@geolykos]

Thanks for this. I was struggling recently after I sold a few stocks that went up 50-100% within 1-3 months (eg. Upstart, Atlassian, Nvidia) as they went up a lot more after I sold them. On one hand, they would balance my portfolio nicely against the losers, on the other hand they might have dropped back down and would've missed my chance to sell at a good price. I realised that there's no straight way of playing this game. You have to make a plan beforehand and stick with it. Otherwise you'll find yourself going in "what if" circles.

[@thordang5124]

Nice analysis, thanks. Personally I would sell TSLA @$5k before 2026, and @$10k prior to 2030. Not because there is no further upside, but because I could comfortably retire with intergenerational wealth. There would be little point in risking anything more.

[@paul8513]

Why not leave the money invested and just take profits every month to fund a comfortable lifestyle? If the money is sitting in the bank it will surely just be losing value?

[@charliew6557]

Disclaimer and then counterargument: First, everyone should learn how and do their own company valuations. However, I think my own long-term-holder mentality is: 1) valuations are imprecise, 2) the market won't price at the correct valuation anyway, even if one could determine that value precisely, 3) I can't predict when the market will change its mind about what an appropriate multiple is, 4) if I try to duck-in-duck-out of a company stock over time, I'll probably blow it (hey, I'm not saying YOU can't do this successfully!), and 5) I can make money and minimize cognitive load by identifying and holding great companies with long growth runs ahead of them (and save on taxes too!). This is an argument of degrees, of course. I'll sell if I lose confidence that a company will grow into its current market cap.

[@rickkay9548]

This is exactly right. I have my longs and short term equities and treat them as distinct entities. Money moves and we have to adapt to how certain markets respond. If you understand why certain things are happening you are better informed to know when to drop out or jump in - or stay in. I was long on mrna and sold when earnings missed because I knew that's what the rest would do even though NOTHING changed fundamentally. gotta play psychological aspects of it all. Spot on re: TSLA. People who have no exit plan are nutz

[@ctvxl]

Excellent advise! Do your research. Develop a plan including buy and sell price targets. Keep your eye on the ball, frequently re-evaluating your plan as new information comes in. Stick to the plan and buy or sell when your targets are reached....

[@IainGeddes]

Excellent video Sasha! You nailed it with the "different flavours of the same game" comment. A good one I've heard and think of often is "We’re all playing a different game on the same field." People need to remember that there is information relevant to 'day traders' that's not relevant to so called 'long term investors' in any way. “Personal Finance is much more personal than it is Finance". There really is no one right answer as to what you should do with your money. 👌

[@TheRetirementality]

I'm the worst investor out there, but every time I've sold something it has shot up. So now I have decided to never sell anything. And... they all went down. I'll figure it out one day.

My issue, as a relatively new investor is that I can perhaps find companies that seem to be a good value based on my target price calculation, but then I wonder - I'm pretty inexperienced, I must be missing something that the broader market has factored in. How do I gain confidence other than time and back-testing?

[@comedunken6156]

Ok Sasha I am investing mostly for my future retirement (30-40 years). I invest mostly in companies which I follow and S&P 500 Other thing is I keep money in stock market because it is better than keeping money in bank account where inflation eats. I know there is a risk that my money will go down and up but in long term based on data it will go keep.

[@comedunken6156]

and of course power of compound interest

[@FHDOnTheStreet]

In that case, you're better off keeping your money in the stock market. Depends on your investing strategy, if you're a passive inverstor i.e putting money into a few growth stocks or ETF's for the long term then you might as well keep it there. Like you said it will most likely beat inflation that way whilst also most likely growing. It's not guaranteed to grow but lets be honest the stock market only goes up in the long term

Very Good points Sasha about long term investing (fan club - outstanding). However, I would rather invest 'Long Term' (i.e. Long enough to get my price point for selling) than do 'Day Trading' - dude I don't have the time. I don't see LT investing as a 'Never Sell' concept, there must be some due diligence before you invest and an exit strategy for gains and losses. It's the game we must play.

You ignored taxes in your analysis. Short term gains vs long term. By not selling for a month you could save 10,15,20+%+ on taxes. Also whatever your tax is when you sell out you have to take that out of the money out into the stock comparing. So that new stock you can’t just expect to out perform your old by a little bit.
