Article Abstract:

The article discusses a list of errors made by American investors, such as selling winning investments too soon, holding on to poor investments too long, and over-confidence which often results in a lower risk-weighted return. These results are based on a study by the University of California from 1991-1997, and can be used as reference for Australian investors.
