My personal investment bias is to invest in companies that generate a steady return over time, i.e., singles and doubles. This singles and doubles approach tends to lead to investments in higher quality dividend growth/cash flow growth companies. On the other hand, there are times when a company's stock price seems to be trading above its fair valuation. Short term gains are possible in these situations.
I have been managing investment portfolios for individuals and institutions for over twelve years and believe investing is like running a marathon and not a sprint. Taking the road less traveled, more often than not, leads to higher returns.
