Stock research: Where is my joy? How to define the hard work?

June 6, 2020

Introduction

It is such a great day to see SPX hike up so much. I just could not believe that! Also I found out that I was so stressed as a long term investor. I like to write something about myself as an investor.

Where is my joy?

I observed myself as an investor. I held on 100 share OVV.TO stock starting from March 27, and last two months up to June 6, 2020, the stock went up almost 4 times. Last month I am holding $40,000 dollars cash in my TFSA account, but I had a few times to talk about and think about purchase of more shares OVV.TO. But I never made any effort.

I do not like to live a life like this as an investor. I decided to purchase over 10 stocks from Yahoo stock gainers first page, and then find one ENBL to make purchase of 600 shares.

I am really afraid of losing money in stock market last two months. Where is my joy?

I should learn more about business. This morning the first three hours I was working on design of purchase, I calculated so many ideas, OVV.TO stock, how many shares, but I learned that I am in trouble since I do not know business.

America needs job. Why can I make some purchase small cap or media cap stocks of USA to help economy back, stock goes up first and then jobs will follow.

I like to document notes I worked over two hours. Those two hours are most suffering time in my adult life. Why do I care about so much the gains, and do not care about at all how people are struggling, need jobs to feed family in USA.
