One big perk about travelling is that I do not have time or bandwidth to monitor the markets.
That’s a good thing.
I have always been prone to overtrading and just stopping all this for almost a whole month is actually doing wonders to my total portfolio.
Less obsession with daily PnL and more obsession with the snow of Hokkaido.
The longer term portfolio also needs little monitoring.
The cash portfolio continues to compound.
It’s also been helpful that there is little volume in the markets as more people travel during the holidays, so stock markets just slowly chug up.
Maybe I should do this more often?
