One of the key challenges of being a value investor is not getting "sucked" into market hype, ephemeral bubbles, and short term thinking.
Its easy to get pulled into speculative trades when everyone is seemingly making money, be it crypto, technology or metals. All of these markets offer ample opportunities for traders to partake in the party, but true value investment opportunities in these markets are scarce.
Standing pat, and not pulling the trigger, when everyone is free shooting is perhaps the greatest challenge for those looking to buy assets below their true value.
Those who develop the discipline to only act when their value criteria are met, and swing big when they do, stand to generate much better, and more sustainable, returns long term than those chasing every fad.
