Confidence and conviction are the keys to success in asset
management. Analysts projecting these traits become more likely
candidates for promotion; clients gravitate to portfolio managers
who radiate assurance about future performance. However, these
qualities do a disservice to optimal decision making and long-term
investment performance. The future is too complex to justify such
levels of confidence. In Reasons to Pass, the seasoned practitioner
Ralph Birchmeier argues that an optimal portfolio-building strategy
means patiently waiting for the few investments worthy of capital
allocation. He outlines the principles required for success then
examines specific reasons to pass on investments, detailing
behavioral biases that disrupt optimal decision making. Although
professional and retail investors alike are tempted by various
opportunities, the wisdom of experience proves the value of
prudence. An investing strategy built to last requires humility and
the willingness to accept uncertainty; most of the time, it's best
to pass. Reasons to Pass brings investing back to the basics,
helping readers navigate the complexity of the financial landscape
and bringing clarity to the investment process. By underscoring the
perils of overconfidence and the importance of humility, this book
offers invaluable new perspective on investing for the long term.
