What does it mean if your anti-portfolio looks far better than your actual portfolio?:-)
- confluence 14y agoThere are 1000s of startups on the anti-portfolio list. Only the winners are shown. Investing in startups is hard.
- dyno12345 14y agoIs it even better than random? This anti-portfolio is so impressive it seems to suggest a strategy of investing a small amount in all but the stupidest rather than even trying to pick winners
- confluence 14y agoYes. Being better than random is a particularly low bar to pass.
- dyno12345 14y agoIs it so hard to believe? We still put hundreds of billions into mutual funds that aren't better than random
- jewbacca 14y agoIf you had to keep all the failures you'd rejected on the anti-books... actually, I thought this was an asinine comment but there might actually be a lesson here. I ain't no fancy big city investin' type, but wouldn't one of the fundamental principles be to find the point where this your portfolio and your anti-portfolio are balanced?
