There is so much ridiculous logical fallacy when it comes to investment philosophy, as you can see plenty in this thread.  But I guess that's what makes the stock market balanced.  You can't have 10 million people doing the same thing and still make money.

Different styles work during different times.
It might still work for some sectors.

Just be flexible and keep an open mind

again, the amount of $ you make should not be tied to a certain methodology.

but I do agree that day trade is probably not the most efficient method, since stock prices seem to follow a random walk within such a short period and the gain/loss distribution is approximately normal.

for periods significantly longer than inter-day, say 2 months vs 2 years, the behavior is very different.
you can read stuff about chaos theory to understand the completely different market dynamics

I don't like long term only because I think life is so short.  But if I have 1000 years to live, I would love to hold my stocks for 40 years.

making money has never been my goal to invest

I am really more interested in the philosophies of investing
and it's amusing to see how people can behave so illogical and irrational when it comes to the market

$25?  A market valuation of 15B?
It's always nice to be optimistic
