7 Investing Styles – Which Style Of Investing In Stocks Fits You

Before you can invest, you need to know what you’re doing. If you don’t know why you’re investing, then all the money in the world won’t help. If you don’t know how to do it, then all the money in the world won’t help either. So, it is important that you learn about investment strategy and investing styles.

The best way to learn is by doing it. There are hundreds of ways to start investing and thousands more to continue learning. The key to stock investing is just starting: You have to start somewhere.

Investment styles come in many forms and can be quite complex. But there are some basic principles that can help you decide which style best fits your temperament and goals as an investor.

There are many investing styles and each style has its pros and cons.

1. Conservative Investors

Conservative investors tend to avoid risks and focus on steady growth. They are willing to wait for the right opportunity to invest in stocks. They do not like to take big risks because they believe that stocks will always go up in the long run. Conservative investors may want to buy stocks that have a good track record of earnings growth and company stability.

2. Moderate Investors

Moderate investors are willing to take some risk in their investments but only at certain levels. They like stocks with a good history of dividend payments and strong balance sheets. Moderate investors do not mind holding onto their investments for a long time period but they do not want to overpay for them either.

3. Aggressive Investors

Aggressive investors want high returns on their investments as quickly as possible and they are willing to take risks in order to achieve those returns faster than other styles of investing would allow them too. Aggressive investors often prefer options over traditional stock trading because it allows them more flexibility when making trades or when adjusting positions within their portfolio(s).

4. Value Investing

Value investors look for stocks that they believe are undervalued and will eventually appreciate in value. They invest in companies that have a solid business model and have the potential to grow. For example, if you’re looking at a company that makes shoes, you might look for stocks with a history of steady growth and profit margins.

5. Growth Investors

Growth investors like to invest in companies that have a high potential for earnings growth over time. They buy into businesses that are expanding rapidly or are extremely profitable, even if their stock price isn’t going up as fast as it could be. For example, if you see a company making more money each year than it did last year, then there’s probably room for further growth in its earnings overall.

6. Income Investors

Income investors focus on dividends and share buybacks when investing in stocks because they pay out cash to shareholders monthly or quarterly (depending on the type of investment fund you’re using). That’s why they often focus on dividend-paying stocks like utility stocks or telecommunications companies because they tend to pay out higher dividends than other types of investments do.

7. Extreme: Very high risk/very high reward

This style of investing is for the person who wants to gain as much wealth as possible in the shortest amount of time. The extreme investor does not care about safety, and will buy stocks that are extremely risky in nature but will also offer the greatest potential for financial gain. These investors tend to be very focused on returns, which can make them reckless with their money.

For example, an extreme investor might buy a stock that is only expected to pay a 12% dividend yield, but they believe its growth potential is enormous because it’s developing a new technology that could revolutionize the industry or create a new market altogether. The downside? If it doesn’t succeed, you could lose everything you’ve invested in it.
