SIMPLE STEPS TO INVEST IN A BEAR MARKET, PROTECT YOUR CAPITAL

Every stock market comprises traders and investors each desirous of money-making in the short, medium and long term as a target, helped by movements in the price of equities to create wealth for investors.

These investors would mostly buy into a seemingly bearish market, while anticipating a bull transition with the intention of selling in a strong market at a higher price for profit.

However, it is true that oftentimes, things do not turn out as planned, especially when the stock price you expected would rally turns the other way and then starts plummeting. It may happen that the prices of such stocks go down by as much as 10 to 25%, and even 50%. In the process, you may lose your capital which is your hard-earned money regardless of the name attached to market situation – down-market, correction, downtrend or up market.

In equity investments, nobody wants to stocks at a loss ordinarily. This creates a ‘loser’ feeling and an inexperienced way of investing, a feeling I had many years ago.

You cannot expect me to sell a stock I bought at N5.00 each for N3.20 for example. I am very sure that many investors would respond in the same manner. But after the 2008/2009 market crash, I learnt a lesson that a bird in hand is worth two others in the bush. Many of us lost our investable funds, believing that the market would recover soon after but continued it continued a southward pull. In the process I almost lost everything. Before I knew it, stocks that were bought at N120 dropped to N23; while those of N12 slumped to N1.76; and those worth N380 was selling at N120 and we held on, because many of us did not apply the simple rule of cutting our losses, thereby protecting our capital from further decline.  It looks simple but it works in any market at all time. Stopping loss is not only a rule but a stock market principle.

Do you know that there are only two types of investors in the market? They are the givers and the receivers. Which type are you? Do you want to join the group of receivers?

If the answer is ‘yes,’ do not act emotionally. Apply the ‘Stop Loss’ rule and hold cash, not stocks. It is not easy to be receivers in the stock market, but you can achieve it if you desire to invest without attaching emotions to any stock when a trade does not meet your expectations. Jump out immediately to protect and preserve your capital. Also, many investors lose money in the stock market because they don’t want to sell their favorite stocks.

Such investors often think the price of a particular stock would rebound eventually. If you let your stock go down 50%, you will need the stock to gain 100% just to break even. It is not at all times that stocks double in price, especially in our market where players are inclined to trading. Smart traders target 18-25% profit and exit such stocks thereafter.

Sometimes, stock prices will bounce back, but most of the time the stock price never does.

Yes, I mean never. So, why take the risk of allowing your stock to drop, hoping its price would come back? Just take a small loss and move on to other stocks in the market or hold cash to watch for the next direction the market is heading.
