Sayings By Sol Palha: A Guide to Thriving in Life & the Market
When it comes to the Markets, we do not aim for the exact bottom or top, as that is an endeavour best reserved for monkeys. Sol Palha
Mass psychology is critical in nearly every aspect of our lives, from mundane decisions to market investing. Yet, it is widely misunderstood. Sol Palha’s “Sayings to Live By” book illustrates how to harness the power of mass psychology to make better decisions and improve one’s life.
The masses are often on the wrong side of opportunity, seeking comfort in numbers instead of individuality, which leads to their downfall. In contrast, Sol Palha’s approach focuses on being contrarian and immediately applying the first principle of mass psychology. He views disasters not as an end but as a code name for opportunity.
At Tactical Investor, Sol Palha combines the best of mass psychology and technical analysis to create a robust and adaptable stock market timing system. The aim is not to identify the exact top or bottom, but to spot when a market is bottoming or topping.
