When leaving Detroit and traveling due south, what is the first country you come to? Jason Zweig, in this classic 2004 article, examines typical investor errors, including the most dangerous of all, overconfidence. Zweig writes "Intelligent investors accept not just the possibility but the certainty that they will be wrong much of the time." For the answer to the question above, click on the link below. Canada I missed it too. Zweig continues "Despite everything most market pundits say, investing is not a struggle, a battle, a game or a contest; it is a continuous process that lasts a lifetime. ...The only thing that matters is whether you prevail in the end -- and the factors that determine long-term victory are the exact opposite of the ones that tend to create short-term success."
