Edwin Lefevre Quotes About Speculation

• Fear and hope remain the same; therefore the study of the psychology of speculators is as valuable as it ever was. Weapons change, but strategy remains strategy, on the New York Stock Exchange as on the battlefield. I think the clearest summing up of the whole thing was expressed by Thomas F. Woodlock when he declared: “The principles of successful stock speculation are based on the supposition that people will continue in the future to make the mistakes that they have made in the past.”

• En ningún otro lugar la historia se permite repeticiones tan frecuentes o uniformes como en Wall Street. Cuando se leen relatos contemporáneos de auges o pánicos, lo que más llama la atención es lo poco que difieren la especulación bursátil o los especuladores bursátiles de hoy de los de ayer. El juego no cambia y la naturaleza humana tampoco.
