Five Investing Pitfalls To Avoid, According to Investor’s Business Daily

Buying Low-Priced Stocks

What sounds better? Buying 1,000 shares of a $1 stock or buying 20 shares of a $50 stock? Most people would probably say the former because it seems like a bargain, with more……… for big increases from owning more shares. But the money you make in a stock isn’t based on how many shares you own; it’s based on the amount of money………

Many investors have a love affair with cheap stocks, but low-priced stocks are generally missing a key ingredient of past stock market winners:……. sponsorship.

A stock can’t make big gains without the buying power of……. funds, banks, insurance companies and other deep-pocketed investors fueling their price moves. It’s not…… trades of 100, 200 or 300 shares that cause a stock to surge higher in price, it’s big institutional…….. share trades of 10,000, 20,000 or more that cause these great jumps in price when they buy – as well as great price drops when they sell.

Institutional investors account for about 70% of the trading……. each day on the……… so it’s a good idea to fish in the same pond as they do.

Remember: Cheap stocks are cheap for a reason. Stocks sell for what they’re…… In many cases, investors that try to grab stocks on the cheap don’t realize that they’re buying a company mired in problems with no institutional sponsorship, slowing…….. and sales growth and shrinking…….. share. Institutions have……. teams that seek out great opportunities, and because they buy in huge quantities over time, consider…….. their choices if you find these fund managers have better-than-average performance.

Avoiding Stocks With High P/E Ratios

«…….. on stocks with low P/E ratios. They’re attractively valued and there’s a lot of……… «How many times have you heard this statement from investment…….?

While it’s true that stocks with low P/E ratios can go higher, investors often misuse this……… metric. Leaders in an industry group often trade at a higher…….. than their…….. for a simple reason: They’re expanding their market share faster because of outstanding earnings and sales growth…….

Stocks on your……. list should have the traits of past big stock market…… we mentioned earlier: leading price performance in their industry group, top-notch earnings and sales growth and rising fund ownership, to name a few. A……. new product or service doesn’t hurt either.

Stocks with «high» P/E ratios share a common trait: their…….. shows there’s plenty of…….. about the company’s future prospects.

Letting Small Losses Turn Into Big Ones

Cut your losses in any stock at 7% or 8% and you’ll never get hit with a big loss: this is your…….. policy. If you buy stocks at the right time, they should never fall 7—8% below your…….. price.

A small loss in a stock can easily be overcome; it’s the big ones that can do serious damage to a…….. Take a 50% loss on a stock, and it would need to rise 100% to get back to…….. But if you cut your losses at 7% or 8%, a single 25%……. can wipe out three 7%—8% losses.

If a stock you own starts to fall on expanding…….. volume, it’s usually better to sell first and ask questions later, rather than the other way around. Keep losses small to avoid severe……. You can always re-enter the……. if you’ve only lost 7%. Don’t ever look back after a smart sell, even if the stock…….. You cannot……. its future, so you are best off reacting to what your stock is telling you right now. Learning this trait is hard – but it will save you a great…… in the long run.

Averaging Down

Averaging down means you’re buying stock as the price falls in the hopes of getting a……. It’s also known as throwing good money after bad or trying to catch a……. knife. Either way, trying to lower your…… cost in a stock is another risky proposition.

Buying Stocks In A Down Market

Some investors don’t pay any attention to the…… state of the market when they buy stocks, and that’s a mistake.

The goal is to buy stocks when the major……. are showing signs of…… (buying: heavy volume price increases) and to sell when they’re showing signs of…… (selling: heavy volume price declines).

When you’re buying stocks, make sure you’re swimming with the market tide, not against it.

Exercise 6. Translate into Russian.

Покупать нельзя продавать

Акции «Транснефти» стали предметом спора крупнейших российских инвесткомпаний. В ответ на рекомендацию Deutsche UFG «продавать» привилегированные акции монополии и снижение их расчетной цены в 4,5 раза «Тройка Диалог» посоветовала инвесторам «покупать» бумаги «Транснефти».

«Транснефть»– нефтепроводная монополия, государству принадлежат 75% акций (100% голосующих), привилегированные акции (25% уставного капитала) обращаются на рынке. Чистая прибыль «Транснефти» по МСФО за девять месяцев 2005 г. – 41,6 млрд руб., выручка – 135,4 млрд руб.

На прошлой неделе Deutsche UFG в 4,5 раза понизил оценку справедливой цены привилегированных акций «Транснефти» – с $2662 до $580 – и рекомендовал инвесторам «продавать» бумаги. Инвестбанк мотивировал свое решение тем, что воспринимает ее теперь не как коммерческое предприятие, работающее для выгоды своих акционеров, а как технический инструмент государства. В результате в пятницу «префы» «Транснефти» в РТС рухнули на 10% (до $2185), на ММВБ – на 8,8% (61 500 руб.).

Другие инвесткомпании не разделяют пессимизма Deutsche UFG. Вчера «Тройка Диалог» вновь повторила рекомендацию «покупать» акции «Транснефти». «Бумаги подешевели на 10%, и мы считаем, что представился удачный момент для их покупки», – говорится в отчете инвесткомпании. «Транснефть» хоть и контролируется государством, но нацелена на получение максимальной прибыли. «Тройка Диалог», как и прежде, считает, что справедливая цена акций «Транснефти» составляет $3150. Инвесткомпания называет их единственными бумагами нефтегазового сектора, которым предстоит существенная переоценка. Соотношение стоимости компании и прогноза EBITDA на 2006 г. у «Транснефти» составляет 3,3, а в среднем по отрасли – 6,2, говорится в отчете.

«Мы не поменяли своего мнения о „Транснефти“, просто отреагировали на 10-процентное падение ее котировок», – поясняет старший аналитик «Тройки Диалог» Олег Максимов. В Deutsche UFG от комментариев отказались.

«Я не помню такого большого разброса в оценке справедливой цены акций компании», – разводит руками начальник аналитического отдела «Атона» Стивен Дашевский. По его мнению, отчеты инвестбанков «оживили торговлю акциями „Транснефти“. Вчера к середине дня „префы“ „Транснефти“ частично отыграли пятничное падение (на 5,5% в ММВБ и 6,18% в РТС), но к вечеру снова подешевели и закрылись почти на уровне пятницы – 60 985 руб. на ММВБ и $2185 в РТС.
