Optimizing Capital Utilization
In investing, capital is our raw material, and effective utilization is key to generating profits. By leveraging momentum strategies, investors can extract gains from market movements without letting capital sit idle. This targeted approach ensures that capital remains available for other investment opportunities.
Rather than holding onto stagnant stocks for years, momentum strategies enable investors to act decisively based on price movements. By entering positions during periods of upward momentum and exiting when signs of exhaustion emerge, investors can safeguard their capital and pursue more promising opportunities.
