Hi Guys,
Research shows that men and women have important divergent investing characteristics. And those characteristics generate differential outcomes. Statistically, these outcomes demonstrate the superiority of women as investors. Here is a Link to an article that summarizes these findings:
https://www.wsj.com/articles/male-investors-vs-female-investors-how-do-they-compare-1430709406I'm not too surprised by this comparison. From Alexis Tocqueville: " If I were asked, ........ to what the singular prosperity and growing strength of that people (he was talking about Americans) ought mainly to be attributed, I should reply - to the superiority of their women". Indeed, a wise assessment that can be repeated in many other areas.
The percentage differential might be small, but it is positive and when operating over a long investment lifetime, the integrated difference is substantial. I share that same perspective based on experience. More power to our womenfolk.
Best. Regards
