How do I know if my portfolio is about to lose money?

Investing on stock is a gamble. It's either you profit or you don't. I am a stock investor and I've had my shares ifsuccess and failures, I want to increase my success rate which is why I want to know the signs of a portfolio that is about to lose money so that preventive measures can be taken against the situation.7

    If you have a celebrity-like portfolio then you need to watch out. A celebrity-like portfolio simply means that you are buy the same stocks the ‘guru’ investors like are buying. If you are a stockoholic then you need to stop as it would hurt you more than it would help. Do you find yourself having ‘junk’ stocks in your portfolio you’re unwilling to cut losses on? You must not be to cut off losses cause most of the time, they do not regain the profit that you used to have.

Great customer service officers

I have had this card for a long while. The good thing with the card is that AMEX have been waiving my annual fees which is probably why I still have the card. The pros with this card include – Great customer service officers that are friendly and will do their best to help you with prompt follow ups, direct credit of miles to your Krisflyer account, many small promos every few months with a fantastic sign up promo, no minimum spending and perfect for concert lovers as AMEX offers priority to provide tickets.

This card gives me $80 cash rebates every month.

I fancy the OCBC 365 credit because it has cash rebate of $80, but only after you full fill their criteria. They require a minimum spending of $800 per month which in turn earns interest from different spending. This card suits me just fine being that I have broad spending habit and in the process it gives me $80 cash rebates every month. My only dislike is the rebate on the general spending which is 0.3%.

Close to 6.5% rebates on dining

I have held this card for quite a long time and one thing I like about the card is the fact that it is used for CapitaLand malls and they are almost everywhere. So I enjoy dining taking advantage of the 10x rewards merchants to accumulate the points faster. Imagine getting close to 6.5% rebates on dining. Not to forget their sign up bonus of $60 rebates in vouchers when you spend $1,500. That's a 4% rebate excluding the points you will earn which will convert into vouchers too.

Complimentary Night Stay a Success

Very impressed by the complimentary night stay I got after I made bookings for a five nights stay at a resort I spent my birthday at in Malaysia. Even more pleasing was the complimentary golf games at a high quality golf courses in Malaysia. As a matter of fact, I had as much as six complementary golf games.
