Ep. 39 The Emotional Toll of Investing in Individual Stocks vs. Index Funds
In today’s episode, I’m talking about the hidden cost of investing in individual stock vs investing in a basket of companies inside of an Exchange Traded Fund (ETF), Index Fund, or Mutual Fund. Namely, the emotional toll it can take to invest in individual companies. Is it worth experiencing the stress and angst it takes to invest in individual companies? Sometimes, investing in a broad range of companies within an ETF or an Index Fund is less stressful and takes less of an emotional toll on the investor. When you’re invested in a bunch of companies with a fund you’re less likely to fixate any one company. Whereas focusing on one company's results can bring about a much more emotional ride.
