Jeff Yass Quotes

We believe we can train any intelligent, quick thinking person to be a trader. We feel traders are made, not born.

If you invest and don't diversify, you're literally throwing out money. People don't realize that diversification is beneficial even if it reduces your return. Why? Because it reduces your risk even more. Therefore, if you diversify and then use margin to increase your leverage to a risk level equivalent to that of a nondiversified position, your return will probably be greater.

Given the nature of market, the chance of a crash is always greater than the chance of an overnight runaway euphoria.

The moral is that in trading it's important to examine the situation from as many angles as possible, because your initial impulses are probably going to be wrong. There is never any money to be made in the obvious conclusions.
