Today, we look at how technology has made the investment journey extremely easy for investors. Below are some areas where technology plays a vital role in investing –
Access to information – Most times, having the right piece of information at the right time is essential. It helps you make better investments and avoid a bad ones. Earlier, investors used to rely mainly on TV and print media for information. The problem is you cannot be in front of the TV all the time, and with the print media, the information always reaches late to you. Now with technology, you have all the information at your fingertips. Be it a corporate announcement or result declaration – you have all the information.
Detailed data – Today, with technology, you can analyze a company based on hundreds of pointers within a few minutes. All the financial ratios are available, and you don’t have to calculate them for each company of your interest. Depending on your need, you can pick the right app and check all the ratios and decide what you need to do.
Human emotions – Most investors don’t make money in the stock market because they cannot control their emotions. They behave opposite to what they should in an ideal case scenario. When an investor sees the market going up, they tend to assume it will continue to go up. They invest heavily at the peak. When it goes down, you don’t invest – you are unsure how low it will go.
Technology can help with better investment decisions by removing emotions from your investment journey. Technology can study the data pointers as mentioned above. Also, it guides you when to buy and when to avoid investments.
Risk management – Let us assume you have invested in 30 different stocks. You can’t track each company all the time. Why? There are many parameters to track – financials, corporate news, growth news, frauds, etc. In most cases, an average investor cannot track all his investments and may not exit at the right time.
Technology is changing this scenario. With technology, tracking and monitoring stocks in a portfolio are super easy. There are tools available that will continuously monitor companies in your portfolio. It will send an alert when a red flag is raised. You can act in real-time to exit the company and avoid losses.
Discipline – No one becomes rich by investing for a few months. You have to be disciplined and invest over the years to create wealth. Using technology, you can build on that habit. Your investment platform should be smart enough to remind you to make regular investments.
