\"The<\/a>
The trading game of speculation by Jesse Livermore<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\"\"<\/a>Speculators are not interested in putting their money into a stock or commodity for a long time. They want to see a good profit quickly \u2013 on a time scale of minutes to months. If their money does not quickly perform well in a situation, they move it into another situation. In pursuit of greater gain, speculators take greater risks with their capital than people who put their money into Savings & CD Accounts.<\/span><\/p>\n

For the merchant, even honesty is a financial speculation. <\/span>
\nCharles Baudelaire<\/span><\/p>\n

An investment operation is one which, upon thorough analysis, promises safety of principal and a satisfactory return. Operations not meeting these requirements are speculative.<\/span>
\nBenjamin Graham and David Dodd<\/span><\/p>\n

The speculator is not an investor. His object is not to secure a steady return on his money at a good rate of interest, but to profit by either a rise or a fall in the price of whatever he may be speculating in.<\/span>
\nJesse Livermore<\/span><\/p>\n

The game of speculation is the most uniformly fascinating game in the world. But it is not a game for the stupid, the mentally lazy, the person of inferior emotional balance, or the get-rich-quick adventurer. They will die poor.<\/span>
\nJesse Livermore<\/span><\/p>\n

Speculation is a hard and trying business, and a speculator must be on the job all the time or he\u2019ll soon have no job to be on.<\/span>
\nJesse Livermore<\/span><\/p>\n

Doing speculation trading means challenging yourself first and then the market; that’s why you must know a lot about stupidity!<\/span>
\nCarl William Brown<\/span><\/p>\n

Outright speculation is neither illegal, immoral, nor (for most people) fattening to the pocketbook. More than that, some speculation is necessary and unavoidable, for in many common-stock situations there are substantial possibilities of both profit and loss and the risks therein must be assumed by someone.<\/span>
\nBenjamin Graham<\/span><\/p>\n

There is intelligent speculation as there is intelligent investing. But there are many ways in which speculation may be unintelligent. Of these the foremost are: speculating when you think you are investing; speculating seriously when you lack proper knowledge and skill for it; risking more money in speculation than you can afford to lose.<\/span>
\nBenjamin Graham<\/span><\/p>\n

The great thing about the ‘Fast and Furious’ world is everything is up for speculation. Yes, anything is a possibility. <\/span>
\nJames Wan<\/span><\/p>\n

To anticipate the market is to gamble. To be patient and react only when the market gives the signal is to speculate.<\/span>
\nJesse Livermore<\/span><\/p>\n

What is faith but a kind of betting or speculation after all? It should be, I bet that my Redeemer liveth. <\/span>
\nSamuel Butler<\/span><\/p>\n

If the world were good for nothing else, it is a fine subject for speculation. <\/span>
\nWilliam Hazlitt<\/span><\/p>\n

A speculator is a man who observes the future, and acts before it occurs. <\/span>
\nBernard Baruch<\/span><\/p>\n

Another great evil arising from this desire to be thought rich; or rather, from the desire not to be thought poor, is the destructive thing which has been honored by the name of speculation; but which ought to be called Gambling. <\/span>
\nWilliam Cobbett<\/span><\/p>\n

Speculation is only a word covering the making of money out of the manipulation of prices, instead of supplying goods and services. <\/span>
\nHenry Ford<\/span><\/p>\n

There are two times in a man’s life when he should not speculate: when he can’t afford it, and when he can. <\/span>
\nMark Twain<\/span><\/p>\n

We are living in an open world. There is a freedom of speech and, clearly, freedom of speculation. <\/span>
\nEhud Barak<\/span><\/p>\n

To my mind, the main reason for the Depression in the United States as a whole, is the bondage of debt and the spirit of speculation among the people. <\/span>
\nHeber J. Grant<\/span><\/p>\n

Speculation replaces fact. It’s very easy to see news outlets running with information that is unconfirmed or erroneous. <\/span>
