Buy-and-hold strategy

"Buy-and-hold is a wonderful strategy. It can meaning holding on to your investments for 20-30 years or even a lifetime," says Suresh Sadagopan, a certified financial planner. The idea behind it is a high-quality business will compound capital for a long time and so, the best time to sell it is 'almost never'.

"If you pick 100 people who have really done well in the stock market over a decade or more, you'll find the vast majority of them are buy-and-hold investors. There will be very few successful traders in that group," says Sanjay Bakshi, adjunct professor at MDI Gurgaon, a business school.
