broom bundle of stocks in bull trend

 suppose we buy 30 stocks. on the day of buying they are like a bundle of sticks tied with a string.

while we often wish that the stocks in the bundle will go this way👇

we fear the stocks actually going opposite way with falling market

but that is a baseless fear which often prompts an investor into wrong actions or unnecessary anxiety

because in reality, it is often seen that the bundle of stocks behave like a broom.

all stocks going in their way depending upon their merit.

all a trader has to do is to try to pick only those stocks where the chances of all stocks/sticks in one direction (up) are higher

In fact,  even if market (index) dips, it momentary disturbs/ distorts the good stocks which again come back to their original track

Something like this

Pick good stocks in bull trend and don't worry about the broader index

Just because the world is going to hell doesn't mean good people and stocks are not living in heaven already. They are merrily marching to happiness and wealth
