If you are here to buy the dips, please bear in mind, in situations like this (war etc.) uncertainty is very high and things get out of hand very quickly even for US or Israel.

"The 'Math of Misery' is simple:

Debt + Ego = Ruin.

It doesn't matter how smart you are. If you have a massive ego and you use leverage to prove how right you are, the market will eventually find the one day where you are wrong and wipe you out. We’ve seen it happen to geniuses.

To avoid this, you need humility in your valuation. You have to assume that you might be wrong, that the economy might turn, and that your best horse might go lame. If your valuation doesn't survive a bad luck scenario, it’s not a valuation-it’s a prayer." - Charlie Munger

“• SECRET TIP—The first step in learning how to pick big stock market winners is to examine leaders of the past, like those you’re about to see, to learn all the characteristics of the most successful stocks. From these observations, you will be able to recognize the types of price and earnings patterns these stocks developed just before their spectacular price advances.”
William O'Neil.

Lessons to be learnt from this:

1. Don't invest the money which you may need in the short term.
2. Invest in businesses with high quality earnings as they respond back early after draw downs.
3. The stock market is a tool to transfer money from the impatient to the patient so it is better to invest for the long term.

Can the new policy take the industry from local assembly to complete local manufacturing?
The government’s aim is largely correct. Increased localisation is the way to go, not only for its technological and forex revenue benefits, but also because it is a way to generate livelihoods for the many.

Almost all phone companies in the world have their models locally assembled in Pakistan except Apple. Can the new policy take the industry from local assembly to complete local manufacturing?

"Whatever method you use to pick stocks your ultimate success or failure will depend on your ability to ignore the worries of the world long enough to allow your investments to succeed. It isn’t the head but the stomach that determines the fate of the stockpicker."

“The important thing is to keep playing, to play against weak opponents, and to play for big stakes.”

"Don't just look at the winners. Look at the companies that went bankrupt. Usually, they didn't go bankrupt because they were unlucky; they went bankrupt because they had too much debt and they overpaid for assets during a boom.

By avoiding those two behaviors, you've eliminated most of the ways to lose big money. If you stay rational about debt and rational about price, the winning will take care of itself over time." - Charlie Munger

“The biggest mistake investors make is investing in the present instead of the future. Always envision the situation 18–24 months out.” - Stanley Druckenmiller

A contrarian take of mine:

90% of success in business is game selection.

Find and play the games where you have an unfair advantage.
