Founder's Insights E26: The Investor Psychology Trap

The LSCRE Podcast ·

2025/04/02

"Buy when there's blood in the streets. Be greedy when others are fearful." We’ve all heard these sayings, but living through a full market cycle proves just how tough they are to follow. Take Peter Lynch’s Magellan Fund as an example. Despite delivering legendary 28% annual returns from 1977 to 1990, the average investor in the fund actually lost money. Why? Because they chased performance, jumping in when returns were soaring and pulling out when markets dipped. The same pattern plays ou...

Founder's Insights E25: Risk:Reward for Fund Managers

The LSCRE Podcast ·

2025/03/26

One of the most fundamental principles of investing is the relationship between risk and return. At its core, this concept suggests a positive correlation: the more risk you take, the more return you can potentially make. However, the key word here is can—because returns are never guaranteed. Greater risk doesn’t just mean the possibility of greater rewards; it also means a greater dispersion of outcomes, including the potential for losses. In this video, I discuss how this risk-retur...
