Stock market expert Stefan Riße on the 4G strategy
Successful investors are characterized not only by financial resources, but also by a certain attitude. Stefan Riße, capital market strategist at Acatis Investment, emphasizes the importance of qualities such as courage and composure for success on the stock market. The division into shaky and hard-nosed investors, inspired by stock market legend André Kostolani, illustrates the differences in dealing with risks and opportunities. According to Riße, the hard-core people have the “4Gs” – money, patience, luck and brains – as important qualities for successful investment strategies.
The idea of being able to win wars by using 4G came from Field Marshal Moltke and was transferred to the stock market by Kostolani. The ability to act wisely and prudently, even in turbulent market situations, is what distinguishes the hard-nosed. Riße emphasizes the importance of patience and a steady hand in order to be successful on the stock market in the long term. This attitude, coupled with a clear mind and a certain willingness to take risks, shapes the mentality of successful investors.
By analyzing market conditions, fundamentals and individual goals, investors can make strategic decisions that enable long-term success. Riße recommends knowing your personal strengths and weaknesses in order to specifically optimize your own investment strategy. The stock market remains a complex playing field where success depends not only on luck, but also on a certain attitude and approach. The 4G forms a basis on which successful investors can make their investment decisions and benefit in the long term.
