One of the key reasons I’ve had success in microcap investing is because I’ve never been afraid to move early, not because I’m necessarily better than the next investor. In fact, I’m just an average dude who likes turning over rocks, who isn’t afraid to take uncomfortable risks.
I don’t wait for the crowd, and I certainly don’t wait for every uncertainty to be de-risked. I like to strike before the herd notices. Sometimes that means having to be satisfied with being comfortable with partial information.
