It’s only a few days into the second quarter of 2020, but what a year it has already been. COVID-19 has wreaked havoc on the lives of billions of people in practically all countries around the world, including Singapore, our home. The human suffering, especially when it comes to our frontline heroes – those in healthcare, food & beverage, delivery, law enforcement, and countless other essential services – is immense. But so is the courage and grace and grit that has been shown. Corporations are also stepping up, overhauling their manufacturing lines and/or working on overdrive to produce all-important masks, sanitisers, ventilators, face shields, cures, vaccines, and more.
At The Good Investors, Jeremy and I have been looking to see how we can help in this fight against COVID-19. Our efforts are miniscule compared to what I just described above. But we do what we can.
One of the things we have been doing is to guide people toward better investment behaviours by regularly providing the appropriate context and information about the current market situation. “The investor’s chief problem – and even his worst enemy – is likely to be himself,” the legendary Ben Graham once said. We are our own worst enemies, and this is a problem Jeremy and I have been trying to help tackle at The Good Investors. If we succeed in helping even just one investor exhibit better investment behaviour in this current climate, then society as a whole, will come out of this crisis in slightly better financial shape.
To widen the reach of our good fight, Jeremy and I are partnering with Online Traders’ Club for a one-day investment webinar that is open to the general public. Online Traders’ Club is a non-profit organization formed in 2005 for members who have a deep interest in the financial markets. Learn more about it here. Online Traders’ Club has kindly offered to handle all the logistics and provide a webinar-platform for Jeremy and I to share our investing thoughts.
