Personally, I do not place much weight on analysts' price targets, although I am not claiming to be more accurate than they are. My perspective stems from observing how these targets tend to fluctuate in response to quarterly earnings reports. After a strong earnings release, analysts often raise their price targets, suggesting optimism about the company's future. Conversely, after disappointing earnings, they tend to lower their targets, reflecting a more pessimistic outlook. This pattern strikes me as somewhat simplistic and reactive, akin to what the average investor might do based on recent performance. While it is essential for analysts to respond to new information, this approach often lacks the depth and foresight necessary for truly understanding a company's long-term potential. In

I finally managed to sell all of my Schwab (SCHW) shares yesterday after holding on for what felt like an eternity. It was a huge relief and a great reminder that patience and emotional discipline can really pay off in the long run. When I first started buying the stock, the price dropped significantly, and my portfolio went deep into the red. But instead of panicking or selling at a loss, I decided to stay the course and even bought more shares to lower my average cost. Fast forward to yesterday—Schwab released an excellent earnings report, and the stock rallied. I took the opportunity to sell and walked away with a solid profit. It was a reminder that while strategy and discipline are key, sometimes timing and luck play a role too. Yesterday was definitely a good day for me. On top of th
