Is a Correction Near? My Current Stock Market Investing Thesis
Warren Buffett says his first two rules of investing are:
- Don’t lose money.
- See rule number one.
I have been thinking about asset allocation and investing a lot lately.
In what could be a terrible decision, I’ve decided to share my learnings here on my blog. I hope someone smarter than me will correct me where I’m wrong and help point me in the right direction towards better learnings.
Disclaimer: I’m not a trained investor, advisor, or financial analyst. I’ve been lucky and have accumulated a portion of money. Now that the markets are up, I feel I have a responsibility to consider and protect my earnings.

I’ve read a lot recently about how the stock market works in cycles.
There are cycles of growth (a bull market), and cycles of recession (a bear market).
Sample market cycle. I searched Google Images for “market cycle.”

I usually read on Kindle, but after getting the “Willpower Doesn’t Work” book at a workshop I bumped it to the top of my reading list. Finished it on the flight home!
