Just my thoughts #0582

When a stock is bought, its fate is already decided. The next step is to wait and sell. In the meantime, there is nothing I can do. If I buy a stock and claim that I can do something with it, that means I’m committing a stock manipulation crime. Either wait patiently or don’t tolerate it; sell the stocks. That’s all we can do with stocks after purchasing them. Therefore, patience is as critical an asset as judgment. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0140

In September 1999, NASA’s unmanned Mars climate probe “MCO” exploded in Mars’ orbit. Manufacturer Lockheed Martin set up the data unit as a “yard,” but NASA mistook it as a “meter.” The MCO entered the atmosphere of Mars 100 km below the original orbit and exploded in friction. Communication error had blown away $ 125 million. With this opportunity, NASA decided that the units used in space development were “meters”. A slip of the tongue in business doesn’t end just a mistake accidentally. It must undoubtedly damage the “cash flow”. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
