Sell in May and go away?

There is no shortage of investing strategies but successful ones generally follow some common principles laid out by Benjamin Graham (with my paraphrase and comments): 

  • Always invest with a margin of safety by finding good companies trading at a fair price or better.
  • Expect volatility and profit from it being cautious when the market is irrationally exuberant and dollar-cost averaging your purchases.
  • Know what kind of investor you are – are you a long-term investor or a trader? Both make money but in very different ways.

Of course, you could always hire a professional to either help you or take on the investing task for you.  Your money, your choice.
