11 Tips from Multi-Millionaire Investor Peter Lynch during a Recession and Extreme Stock Market Volatility

Tip 1: Market volatility is terrific and a great opportunity for investors, but not good for the public.

Market volatility is when the stock market rises and falls more than one percent over a sustained period of time.

Let’s listen to Peter Lynch’s answer back in 1994 explaining why value investors should embrace volatility.

Tip 2

Investing in the stock market is not that complicated. No one can predict the stock market or economy.

In this clip, Lynch explains no one told him about a recession.

Tip 3

Facts are relevant to investing. Economic predictions are a total waste.

In this clip he explains the facts he looks for in the auto industry, hotel industry, chemical industry and the list go on.

If you put $1,000 in a stock, all you can lose is $1,000. But if you’re right, you can make $5,000, $10,000, $20,000 etc.

Lynch goes over a story that he was playing golf during the 1987 stock market crash and there was nothing he could do at that time. He then explains when you’re right on an investment, the stock market allows you to multiply your money on the upside.

As I do in every episode, here’s a quick portfolio update. If you’re new, I created this channel to consistently track, share, and document one of my stock portfolios and the journey from $0 to Infinity! I’ve been investing for 10+ years now, and I believe investing in the stock market is one of the easiest paths to financial independence. I mark my progress in each youtube thumbnail. By the time you know it, you’ll notice my thumbnail balance will be much higher in the future than it is today!

To recap, I currently own stock in Apple, Fiverr International, Penn National Gaming and Starbucks. I have discussed my reasoning and investment mindset for buying these four stocks in previous episodes.
