Markets Quotes

The people who survive avoid snowball scenarios in which bad trades cause them to become emotionally destabilized and make more bad trades. They are also able to feel the pain of losing. If you don’t feel the pain of a loss, then you’re in the same position as those unfortunate people who have no pain sensors. If they leave their hand on a hot stove, it will burn off. There is no way to survive in the world without pain. Similarly, in the markets, if the losses don’t hurt, your financial survival is tenuous Picture Quote #1

You must have the discipline and temperament to resist your impulses. Human beings have precisely the wrong instincts when it comes to the markets. If you recognise this, you can resist the urge to buy into a rally and sell into a decline. It’s also helpful to remember the power of compounding. You don’t need to stretch for returns to grow your capital over the course of your life Picture Quote #1

If we neglect or abandon those who are suffering in poverty... not only are we depriving ourselves of potential opportunities for markets and economic growth, but ultimately that despair may turn to violence that turns on us Picture Quote #1

In the financial markets I find it easy to predict what will happen and very difficult to predict when it will happen. I think that things were clear during the bubble as to what would happen eventually Picture Quote #1

You need a government that believes in government. It also believes in markets and wants to give markets the best, the greatest opportunity, but is trying to govern well Picture Quote #1

People do not get what they want or what they expect from the markets; they get what they deserve Picture Quote #1

History demonstrates that participants in financial markets are susceptible to waves of optimism. Excessive optimism shows the seeds of its own reversal in the form of imbalances that tend to grow over time Picture Quote #1

Confidence in markets and in institutions, it’s a lot like oxygen. When you have it, you don’t even think about it. It’s indispensable. You can go years without thinking about it. When it’s gone for five minutes, it’s the only thing to think about Picture Quote #1

When people are collecting gold they aren’t doing business.... Gold is constipation: even bankruptcy is more fluid. Gold isn’t wealth: positions in markets are wealth Picture Quote #1

The new markets that arise from ecological constraints will dominate the 21st century economy, and so will markets for knowledge Picture Quote #1

Energy markets can be thought of as suffering from appendicitis due to fossil fuel subsidies. They need to be removed for a healthy energy economy Picture Quote #1

You know those adages about smelling the roses and chasing butterflies? The markets are my butterflies and my roses Picture Quote #1

When does money run out of time? The countdown begins when investable assets pose too much risk for too little return; when lenders desert credit markets for other alternatives such as cash or real assets Picture Quote #1

Having spent 10 years studying emerging markets, I know that you have patterns repeated over and over again. A bubble is like a fire which needs oxygen to continue... when you see there is no oxygen, things change Picture Quote #1

If you are a big company, a big website, and lots of users come to your website, you will have attacks, and you have to deal with that. It just cannot be a reason to take actions to exit certain markets Picture Quote #1

Upon graduation, believe it or not, I had no job. I had no interviews. I had no prospects. I had no worries. What I did have, I had passion. I had enormous passion. I had passion for financial markets. I had fallen in love with financial markets Picture Quote #1

Innovation must lead infrastructure for a simple but compelling reason: Innovation produces new types of products and markets, and it is virtually impossible to know how to run those markets efficiently before they are created Picture Quote #1

If all currencies are moving up or down together, the question is: relative to what? Gold is the canary in the coal mine. It signals problems with respect to currency markets. Central banks should pay attention to it Picture Quote #1

I think that markets classically fail in cases where there are public goods that provide benefits that people cannot capture. The big debate is how big these public goods are, where they exist, things of that sort Picture Quote #1

I prefer for government to err toward less regulation, lower taxation, and free markets. And I’m a radical free trader Picture Quote #1

Be persistent. Editors change; tastes change; editorial markets change. Too many beginning writers give up too easily Picture Quote #1

Everybody has some information. The function of the markets is to aggregate that information, evaluate it and get it incorporated into prices Picture Quote #1

The efficient market theory is one of the better models in the sense that it can be taken as true for every purpose I can think of. For investment purposes, there are very few investors that shouldn’t behave as if markets are totally efficient Picture Quote #1

Many of us economists who believe in efficiency do so because we view markets as amazingly successful devices for reflecting new information rapidly and, for the most part, accurately Picture Quote #1

In the financial markets, hindsight is forever 20/20, but foresight is legally blind. And thus, for most investors, market timing is a practical and emotional impossibility Picture Quote #1

I believe in markets doing what they do well, which is to develop technology, and letting citizens do what they ideally do well, which is to set policy Picture Quote #1

If there’s a recession, I’d buy stocks. That’s when you make money: when markets are spooked Picture Quote #1
