Column published in Toyo Keizai ONLINE: Actions toward profits inferred from survey results

Good morning, this is Matsushita.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average in New York rose slightly yesterday.

It is still aiming higher.

The Shanghai Composite Index continues to fall.

The USD/JPY continues to rise and is in the early 109 yen range.

New York Gold is moving around the same level.

In yesterday's newsletter,

from the reader survey conducted at the beginning of the year,

we introduced the reasons for losses and the reasons for profits based on investors' own analyses.

“2017 Individual Investor Performance Report”

When we examine the results,

it becomes clear that individual investors have a thorough understanding of the reasons for their gains and losses.

Understanding the reasons for gains and losses means that

from now on you can eliminate the reasons for losses and

acquire the reasons for profits,

and turn losses into profits.

What investors should do to achieve profits is to

“study, set rules, manage capital,

and control their mindset to trade.”

This is extremely simple, and everyone knows it.

However, because very few people continue to practice this simple thing that everyone knows,

there are few investment winners.

I have been teaching the same thing all along.

○ Please study

○ Please set rules

○ Please manage your funds.

○ Please control your mindset and

continue trading with enjoyment and happiness

Makoto Matsushita will continue to teach investments like this from now on.

I believe that is the path to success.

This year has only just begun,

please aim for profits this year as well.

ps

The survey results include the annualized returns of the graduates of Makoto Investment School.

Every year we see large profits reported,

which makes us remember the graduates' faces and feel happy.

Please take a look.
