Hello! I’m a Tenbagger Explorer, just like many of you—always on the lookout for stocks with the potential to grow 10x and consistently investing for the long term. Today, I’d like to share how I personally invest, broken into two parts. Many people know what great stocks are, but often struggle with the questions of when, how much, and how to invest. I hope my experience can offer some guidance.
As you probably know, there are many different ways to invest—short-term trading, long-term investing, technical analysis using charts, trend-following strategies, and more. There is no single “correct” approach. The best method is the one that suits you as an investor.
Personally, I find short-term trading, trend-following, and chart-based technical analysis too complicated and emotionally draining. I constantly found myself worrying about losses and obsessively checking charts. While there are outstanding investors who thrive with these strategies, I’ve come to realize they simply don’t fit me.
My investment philosophy is simple and clear: discover high-quality companies with long-term growth potential, and steadily invest in them through automated recurring long-term investments. It might sound obvious, but putting it into practice is far from easy. So why should we stick to automated recurring long-term investing?
The Trap of Market Timing
Many investors dream of “buying low and selling high” with perfect timing. But how often does that really happen?
In contrast, most of us have experienced the opposite—buying at the top and selling at the bottom.
-
Even professional investors struggle to consistently predict short-term market movements.
-
Emotional trading often leads investors to buy high and sell low.
-
Attempting to time the market can result in missing the best-performing days, drastically lowering long-term returns.
The Mathematical Edge of Recurring Investments
Recurring investing involves putting in a fixed amount on a regular schedule. This simple strategy has a surprisingly strong mathematical advantage.
-
Lower Average Purchase Price: When the market drops, you buy more shares. When it rises, you buy fewer. This naturally lowers your average cost over time.
-
Freedom from Emotion: Automated investing removes fear and greed—the biggest enemies of investors. Whether the market crashes or rallies, you stay consistent.
-
The Power of Compounding: Long-term investing lets you fully benefit from compound returns. Over 10 or 20 years, what looks like a small difference can lead to massive gains.
When Recurring Investing Works Best
-
For High-Volatility Growth Stocks: Stocks with 10x potential tend to be volatile. Recurring investing allows you to turn volatility into an advantage.
-
When Investing in Long-Term Trends: Sectors like AI, cloud computing, and biotech can be volatile in the short term, but recurring investing helps you ride the long-term wave.
-
For Busy Professionals: If you don’t have time to monitor charts daily, recurring investing is one of the most efficient ways to grow wealth with minimal time input.
Books That Shaped My Investment Philosophy
There are three key books that inspired me to embrace automated, recurring long-term investing.
“One Up on Wall Street” by Peter Lynch
This book gave me a strong foundation in how to pick stocks, the importance of a 2-minute pitch, and when to sell.
“100 Baggers” by Christopher Mayer
These books taught me the importance of identifying companies with extraordinary long-term growth potential. I learned how to spot businesses that could grow 10x or even 100x.
“The Essays of Warren Buffett” by Warren Buffett and Lawrence Cunningham
This book helped me understand Buffett’s deep commitment to long-term investing, the tax advantages of long-term holding, and why understanding business operations is critical.
Guided by the wisdom of these great investors, I consistently apply recurring investment strategies focused on the high-quality companies I introduce through my channel.
