Barry Ritholtz: 我在书中强调,避免新手错误可以显著提高财务状况。通过避免非受迫性错误,即使是业余投资者也能在市场中获胜。这与网球比赛类似,业余选手获胜的关键在于减少失误,而不是追求高超技巧。在投资中,我们应该专注于避免错误,而不是试图预测市场走势。 我们拥有超过一个世纪的数据来证明这一点,但人性似乎对这些显而易见的信息和数据免疫。我们总是会陷入陷阱,认为这些规则适用于其他人,但不适用于自己。克服这种偏见需要自我反思和对自身局限性的认识。 我曾亲身经历过这种偏见,在观看尼克斯队的比赛时,我意识到自己对球队存在偏见,这让我反思自己是否在其他方面也存在类似的盲点。 为了帮助客户避免犯错,我们采取了积极主动的方式,在市场出现波动之前就与他们沟通,管理他们的预期,特别是当他们经历了良好的投资回报之后。我们向他们展示市场历史,帮助他们将市场下跌视为机会,而不是灾难。 对于那些没有足够资金寻求专业理财建议的年轻投资者,我建议他们构建一个多元化的低成本投资组合,并避免频繁交易。他们应该专注于长期投资,并利用复利的力量。 重要的是,要为市场波动做好情绪上的准备,并制定应对计划。将市场下跌视为机会,而不是损失。 Jim O'Shaughnessy: 我与Barry多年来一直向人们传达这些观点,但人性似乎很难改变。我们拥有大量数据来支持我们的观点,但人们仍然会犯同样的错误。 在市场处于极端状态时,人们更容易犯错。例如,在互联网泡沫时期,许多人认为实体公司已经过时,而在金融危机期间,许多人认为这次情况不同。 为了帮助客户避免这些错误,我们应该积极主动地与他们沟通,管理他们的预期,并帮助他们将市场下跌视为机会。 我们应该向客户展示市场历史,并帮助他们理解市场波动是正常的。我们应该鼓励他们将市场下跌视为买入机会,而不是恐慌性抛售。 对于那些没有足够资金寻求专业理财建议的年轻投资者,我建议他们阅读Barry的书,学习如何避免常见的投资错误。

Shownotes Transcript

My friend Barry Ritholtz has spent his career being an astute market observer, investigating behavioral finance and data analytics. He runs Ritholtz Wealth Management which has been named ETF Advisor of the Year, Financial Times Top 300 Advisors, and one of America’s fastest-growing RIAs. He’s also the host of Masters in Business, Bloomberg Radio’s most popular podcast (50+ million streams/downloads), which he started way back in 2014.

In his new book, How Not To Invest, Barry emphasizes how avoiding rookie mistakes can significantly help you do better financially. He blends engaging stories with data-driven insights, and explores overlooked aspects of behavioral finance, psychology and the market. Reading his book is like having a casual drink with an experienced, wise, and honest friend.
