霍华德·马克斯:你无法预测,但可以准备·第14则

霍华德·马克斯《《你无法预测,但可以准备》》· You Can't Predict. You Can Prepare. · 行动 · 认知 · 财富 · 投资

Having said that, I want to point out emphatically that many of those who complained about the excessive market valuations – including me – started to do so years too soon. And for a long time, another of my old standards was proved true: "being too far ahead of your time is indistinguishable from being wrong." Some of the cautious investors ran out of staying power, losing their jobs or their clients because of having missed the gains. Some capitulated and, having missed the gains, jumped in just in time to participate in the losses. So I'm not trying to give the impression that coping with cycles is easy. But I do think it's a necessary effort. We may never know where we're going, or when the tide will turn, but we had better have a good idea where we are.

白话

马克斯承认,包括他自己在内,很多警告估值过高的人提前好几年就喊了,结果长期被市场打脸。他有句老话:领先时代太远,和犯错没区别。一些谨慎的投资者熬不住,因为错过上涨而丢工作、丢客户;还有人最后投降追高,正好赶上亏损。所以应对周期绝不轻松,但值得做。我们也许永远不知道要去哪、潮水何时转向,但至少得清楚自己现在站在什么位置。核心是:判断对还不够,还得扛得住时间,并认清当下处境。

出自马克斯2001年备忘录,他回顾自己过早看空科技股的教训,谈投资者如何面对周期。

今日一问

你有没有因为判断太早而动摇过?现在该怎样确认自己站在周期的什么位置?
