Fisher: Så får du ett rejält försprång på börsen

By Ken Fisher, Privata Affärer, Thursday, July 10, 2025

Investera med vetskapen om att vedertagen visdom är fel – och att saker som ”alla vet” ofta går att motbevisa. Lyckas du med det får du ett försprång på börsen, skriver Ken Fisher i en krönika.

- Felaktiga påståendet om värderingar
- Därför handlar investeringar aldrig om visshet
- Värdefulla informationen som innebär ”ännu ett rejält försprång”

新台幣急遽升值會拖累股市?用數據揭穿投資「假常識」

By Ken Fisher, Business Weekly, Thursday, July 10, 2025

高本益比(P/E)、元月效應等季節性投資諺語、加稅、強勢新台幣之間,有何共通點? 傳統觀念認為這些都是股市毒藥,且多數投資人對此深信不疑。然而,許多「眾所皆知」的觀念常被證實是錯的。 能識破這點,就是你的優勢。這並不難。只要用科學家的態度去驗證這些「理論」,而不是將所謂的利多或利空「常識」視為絕對。

Gängige Marktweisheiten widerlegen – mit Ihrem neuen Marktlabor

By Ken Fisher, Handelszeitung, Thursday, July 3, 2025

Hohe Kurs-Gewinn-Verhältnisse (KGVs). Steuererhöhungen. Regionale Konflikte. Ein starker (oder schwacher) Franken. Was haben sie gemeinsam? Nach gängiger Meinung sind sie alle schlecht für Aktien. Die meisten Anleger stellen dies nicht infrage. Das ist ein Fehler. Dinge, die «jeder weiss», sind sehr oft nachweislich falsch. Dies zu erkennen, schafft Vorteile. Das ist nicht schwer. Verlassen Sie sich nie darauf, dass die allgemeine Marktmeinung über Gut und Schlecht korrekt ist. Sehen Sie sie als Theorie, die es wie ein Wissenschaftler zu überprüfen gilt. Hier ist Ihr «Labor», um das zu tun.

How to gain an edge in investing by defying conventional wisdom

By Ken Fisher, The National, Tuesday, July 1, 2025

High price-to-earnings ratios. Seasonal return adages. Tax rises. A weak (or strong) dollar. What do they have in common? Conventional wisdom claims all are bad for stocks. Most investors accept that unquestioned. Don't. Things "everyone knows" are very often provably wrong. Getting that right gives you an edge. It isn't hard to do. Never presume common wisdom about what is good or bad for capital markets is correct. See it as a theory to test like a scientist should. Here is your "laboratory" for doing just that. Little we see is truly unprecedented. So, you can easily test most basic claims against historical data. Many prove false.

"אמריקה קודם" הפילה את ארה"ב 35 מקומות בדירוג שוק המניות

By Ken Fisher, Calcalist, Sunday, June 29, 2025

בטור שפרסמתי באפריל טענתי שתוכנית המכסים של נשיא ארה"ב דונלד טראמפ לא היוותה את הטריגר לשוק הדובי שהתחולל לאחר מכן. אבל זה לא אומר שהמכסים הם טובים, והחדשות שזורמות מאז רק מאריכות, ולעתים מגבירות, את אי־הוודאות הכוללת. למעשה, גם פסיקת בית המשפט בארה"ב מסוף מאי שדחתה את רוב המכסים של טראמפ, והביאה לעצירתם הזמנית, היא עוד נדבך בחוסר היציבות הכולל.
