Many retail investors begin their journey with high hopes but little clarity. Tempted by tips or trends, they often enter the market with urgency but without understanding. The result? Uncertain decisions, emotional investing<\/a>, and a sense of regret when things do not go as planned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
