Yard Investing!
Most investors wait for the train on the platform. As it starts running, they queue up to catch it.
But that's the problem with the microcap space.
If you are waiting for the microcap train on the platform.
You are more likely to either miss it or fall off.
Atul ji says
"आपको यार्ड में सो जाना है और इंतजार करना है ट्रेन के निकलने का |"
You have to learn the art of waiting patiently for months and years for your story to play out.
That's the only way to increase your odds of success in microcap investing.
