Compound Stock Earnings Helps New Investors Avoid Common Mistakes

NEW YORK, NY, August 27, 2012 (Press-News.org) Financial investment is hardly a simple or straightforward matter; it requires both knowledge and discipline, and even a seemingly small error can ultimately prove costly. Even seasoned investors can make these small mistakes, to say nothing of investment novices. MarketWatch reports a recent study into investor behavior, which identifies three particularly common investor errors--all of which can ultimately keep a portfolio from being as profitable as it might be otherwise. Meanwhile, financial education services can help to provide both seasoned and new investors with the strategies they need to avoid major errors; one such company, Compound Stock Earnings, has announced a new series of seminars and webinars, which will offer investor insight to stock market beginners.

According to the MarketWatch report, investors of all experience levels can make critical errors. The first common error, the behavioral study finds, is a disposition bias--defined in the study as "selling your winners and buying more of your losers." The second common error is under-diversification, or placing too much emphasis on a very small selection of stocks. Finally, there is investor overconfidence, which can blind investors to the fact that they may be at a true financial disadvantage.

These errors are common even among long-time investors; Compound Stock Earnings has responded by unveiling its fall line-up of financial education seminars. Compound Stock Earnings is a financial education company that's devoted to providing investors with strategies for improving their returns while minimizing risk. The company focuses on the investment technique known as the covered call, which it says is particularly useful for new investors.

The covered call technique is little-known among these investment novices, but, according to Compound Stock Earnings, it is a technique with many advantages. The covered call, when executed properly, can yield as much as a 6 percent return, each and every month.

This consistent yield is one reason why Compound Stock Earnings recommends the covered call to investment novices, particularly those who are simply looking for a steady stream of portfolio income. Additionally, the covered call strategy is said to be relatively low in risk, making it a comparatively safe choice for those new to the investment world.

Compound Stock Earnings makes its covered call instructions and strategies available via live seminars, held in major cities throughout the U.S., as well as webinars, podcasts, and other online resources. The company has revealed the dates for upcoming live and online events, which will be held throughout the autumn and into the winter season. A full schedule can be found at the company's website, along with registration information.
