Volatility and Investment: The phenomenon where an asset’s price fluctuates over time is called volatility. Owning and reselling this volatile asset is known as an investment. The concept of buying and reselling an asset often causes us to overlook the fact that this process involves a trade-off between low-volatility and high-volatility assets. Cash is less volatile than stocks, and stocks are relatively more volatile. In other words, investing involves exchanging low-volatility assets for high-volatility assets and then switching back to low-volatility assets. Meanwhile, surplus profit is generated by the price differences caused by volatility. What would happen if we traded only highly volatile assets with each other? We would probably hesitate to exchange assets and might refrain from investing. In investing, there must be both low-volatility and high-volatility assets. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
While our bodies rest, our blood remains active. About 30 minutes into sleep, the killer T cells that combat viruses, bacteria, and toxins start to function, aided by growth hormones that repair damaged tissues. Quality sleep enhances the immune system, which in turn promotes further sleep, creating a beneficial cycle that maintains our health. Therefore, ensuring adequate sleep is essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
