LEARN ABOUT AVOIDING MAKING MISTAKES IN STOCK MARKETS.
1. ADDING PERCENTAGES
Lets assume that 1st year you loose 50%. And 2nd year you make plus 50%.
At the end of the 2nd year are your investment the same or less.
At the end of the 2nd year you will have 75% of your investment.
For example 1st year you invested $1000.
At the end of the 1st year you loose 50 %. ---- $500
At the end of the 2nd year you gain 50% ---- $ 250
At the end of the 2nd year you have $ 750.
So you lost $ 250.
If you gain 100% at the end of the 2nd year, you will retreive your initial capital.
This is the performence of your portpolio over the last 4 years.
- Year 1 : -10
- Year 2 : - 45
- Year 3 : + 20
- Year 4 : + 35
- Year 5 : ???
By how much you need to perform in year 5 in order to retreive your initial capital.
- Year 1 : -10% = 900
- Year 2: -45 = 495
- Year 3: +20 = 594
- Year 4 : +35 = 801.9
- Year 5 : +25 = 1002.
