I will never buy individual stocks.

After reading a dozen of articles that low cost index funds beat individual stock pickers, i was not convinced, that i can not pick individual stocks better.

I was very bullish on Rocket Internet RKET. I was buying RKET at 15-19€ and selling 19-23€.

Why i am not buying individual stocks anymore:

  1. It takes too much time to monitor the news, rumors and stock price.
  2. There is high risk with individual stocks.
  3. S&P 500 at the same time made +25% compared to mine 19%

Another great example is TV series Billions, that shows stock market manipulation by billionaires.
