| Successful
small cap and micro cap investors do not avoid risk! They view the possibility of reward as a greater motivation
than the fear of loss. The mental challenge of studying services,
products, and management overrides the fear that comes with
the potential for loss. One’s own belief in their due
diligence and capacity to analyze facts and projections is
the prime motivation. The gain’s being an important but secondary motivation
and a pleasant reward for quality investment decisions.
Ask
yourself these questions to help decide whether the small cap and micro cap
market is right for you. If you can
answer yes to most of these questions, micro caps might be
an exciting and fruitful investment option:
?
Do I have the ability to view risk as an intellectual challenge
to be solved rather than fear it as a chance for loss?
? Do I possess the
courage to follow my own convictions?
?
Can I deal with, and more importantly analyze the unavoidable
errors that come with micro-cap investing?
?
Do I have creative and intuitive thinking?
?
Can I remove emotions from the facts when making investment
decisions?
?
Do I understand the alternative ways of thinking that are
necessary to invest in the micro-cap market?
