- Posted by Dejan Pekic BCom DipFP CFP GAICD, Senior Financial Planner
Investing is hard.
Attached is the single year calendar performance since 1994 (except for year 2023 which is only 6 months to the end of 30 June 2023) for the top 200 publically listed companies on the ASX (Australian Stock Exchange).
It also shows the biggest fall from peak to trough in each calendar year (except for year 2023 which is only 6 months to the end of 30 June 2023).
Not all calendar years posted a positive performance however during every single calendar year there was an opportunity to buy at a discount.
Intra-year falls happen every single calendar year.
Click for table.
Investing is hard which is why speculating so often fails.
The smarter method is to learn from Benjamin Graham’s value investing principles which teach an investor to remain invested according to thier appetite for volatility and then look to buy more quality assets when prices fall.
