To generate maximum returns, an Investor must learn how to calculate risk. The general guidelines to investing are just a tool which can be handy while picking stocks. There are many factors which effect a stock's performance. The trick to investing is to guage with reasonable amount of accuracy when to hold a stock and when to sell it off.
Even the most astute investors across the globe have an accuracy rate of around eighty percent. The more companies you analyze, the better you will get at it.

To conclude, I would just like to say, successful investing is about managing risk, not avoiding it. And these days, headlines in newspapers are full of fearful facts and unresolved risks: geopolitical situations, inflation and fear of a bear market. Investors have never liked uncertainty, yet it is the most enduring condition of the investing world. It always has been, and will always be. To be an investor, you must be a believer in a better tomorrow.

Concluded.
