One of the most common complaints I hear from investors is that their advisors or brokers like to tell them when to buy, but never tell them when to sell. Whether those criticisms are fair or not, the sell decision is certainly the most vexing decision that investors face.

Many investors are attempting to justify higher stock “valuations” because interest rates are at historical lows.

The concept is simple, when fixed income offers lower returns it logically stimulates more demand for equities where higher returns can be found.
There are technical distinctions between investing versus speculating. Nevertheless, both concepts are often thought about or utilized interchangeably. Moreover, there are nuanced distinctions between a rational or well-thought-out speculation versus outright gambling.
