Maxim Röder wrote that only a few investors would actually buy when prices fell sharply. In his view, favorable entry opportunities mostly occurred during periods of extreme fear and very poor sentiment. As an example, he mentioned Palantir: in 2021, he bought shares for 16 euros. A year later, the price was 70 percent lower. Röder had published bullish videos on YouTube at that time, explaining why he was buying more. Despite criticism and poor sentiment, he bought additional shares at 6.5 euros. He justified his decision by stating that he believed in Palantir's business model and operational development. For him, it was the company that mattered, not the chart or market sentiment. Those who aspire to high returns and refer to investors like Buffett or Lynch should, in his opinion, act accordingly. Emotions cost money, Röder wrote. #Aktien #Investieren #Börse (translated)
