The biggest problem lies in the fact that by the time good opportunities are identified, more than half of it is already purchased by early buyers. This leads to rise in stock price.

Considering these issues, most successful investors take a step-by-step approach.

Identify the industry that is performing

Identifying the stock might be difficult, but identifying the industry might not be a tough task. For example, the current pandemic has led to a rise in pharma sector. Companies in the pharma sector are working on vaccine, manufacturing sanitizers, masks. This is leading to trust from investors. This, in turn leads to rise in industry average price.

  5. Insurance

  1. Understand its strategy (Source: News Channel, News Apps, Company website)

  2. Check the upcoming initiatives and assess its impact.

  3. If it's a new company, look for the promoters and assess their profiles.

Assess the metrics and track the stock price

Once the above tasks are done, the right time comes when we have the most favourable conditions. For more information on how to prioritize the values in order to take the correct judgement, opt for the Financial Trading Course.
