$Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing(TSM)$ I read a book by 十方老師 from taiwan . It teaches beginners to select a few stocks and then from there filter away bad stocks. And hold for long term. Ignore the noises and the ups and the downs no one can accurately price the market. There are always alot of noises to scare you or fear you from short selling.

But the truth is good stocks will always rise in the end even during times of crisis. So investors who have faith in the stock can keepbuying in the stock to build long term wealth and sell after holding for some years. 

However the book also caution that you should not have blind faith in your stock. Crisis management of a company is a good way to see if the company you are investing does well even when faced with challenges there are no such thing as a company that wont meet its doom or falls. HOWEVER, If the company is consecutively making losses with revenue dropping and dropping even further year on year ( especially for 3 years straight) it is time to select other good stocks. If the company had plans to improve its situation it willreflect on its financials. If the company don improve or adapt and surface out of the water no matter how much money you pump in is like throwing money to the sea. 

The only 2 key thing i learn from the book islook at a company RETURN ON EQUITY(ROE) a company that promises ROE of more than 15%  is a good company for  many years. 

Also look at EPS ( earnings per share) look at its quarter report if it increases year on year this company has potential.

Lastly for company that are young < 10 years , conservative and young investors should avoid as you do not know what future holds for the company. 

Surely there are alot of investment tips and advise out there and this method is a slowerrate to earning money but i feel it is stable and safe as it involves you looking at stock investment for the long term.

If this investment strategy dont work for youyou can try others. But always remeber it is best to stick to one strategy that works for you instead of using all strategies you learn from courses or books as they may not gel well together. 

Investing is like investing in a company if the company is not doing financially well the outcome would not be desirable in the end. I am still a newbie but i dont think the book is lying. 加油吧兄弟姐妹們！希望我們都致富。
