Investment Mantras: 4. Keep your Eyes Open - a Mantra Worth Keeping in Mind
Vakhtang Kelbakiani, Student (University), Georgia, Member 4. "Keep your Eyes Open. Base your theory on facts. Don't filter facts to suit your your theory".
I found this one in an investment book. Says that you should keep digging and even one deviation from your theory can be a valid reason to make a new assumption and a new theory.
The investor faces a time versus safety dilemma.
