How Women are better Investors than Men

State Street Global Advisors we set up the "girl warrior" to mark this  "women day"  and getting a lot of attention.
Here's one more reason to sit up and take notice: Women better investors than men, according to a growing body of evidence.
The big investment firm Fidelity says investors female outperformed males by 0.3% last year. In fact, Fidelity found that women outdid men in the last decade.
Data from Openfolio, investment tracking application, also found this trend. Women have topped men every year in the past three years from Openfolio began tracking results.
"Women do better than men with a very small risk," said Kathy Murphy, president of personal investment at Fidelity.
Men have a tendency to evil in order to buy and sell stocks very often. Few people the art of timing the market. So much of the trade that feeds the boys to come back '.

The Year of Finacial Feminism:

Terrance Dean, a professor at Berkeley's Haas School of Business, who has spent his career studying the investor trends, found that men traded 45% more than women in 1990. He blamed it on male self-confidence.

Women, in contrast, tend to 'buy and hold "investors. It is quite famous advice gurus like Warren Buffett and Jack Bogle give people: Put your money into a low-cost index funds and touch - or decades.

"Women have long-term goals, and stick with the plan," said Murphy. Focus on saving and investing for retirement or college fund a kid, not outsmarting the market.

But here is where the women still mess up: They tend to be averse, but often they are afraid of the stock market. They lack confidence about investing, despite a growing body of evidence that women are gifted.
