To follow what the pros are doing. Guys like Warren Buffet and George Soros don’t make decisions by throwing darts, but instead they have large groups of people that understand the market. They predictably do not return 100+% every year because the conform to a strategy of investing only in businesses they understand.

Look at the companies they choose to invest in. AMEX, UNH, SunTrust, AG, etc. These companies do not ring a bell to the average day trader because they don’t have the excitement created by dotcoms or tech companies. If you look at when the Billionaires invested in these companies and their stock charts, you will see they all trend up.

These aren’t bold statements or new revelations, but most of us still will not follow this strategy. What’s in your portfolio? How well do you know your companies? The recent run-up may end soon and only strong companies will see appreciation.
