Most of the shares in the Quentinvest table are 3G (great story, great growth, great chart), which means I believe they are great stocks to have in your portfolio and it makes sense to periodically add to your holdings. This relates to the key objective of Quentinvest for Shares, which is to help subscribers build great portfolios. I am more focused on buying the right shares (what you buy) than on being overly concerned about timing (when you buy). To paraphrase Warren Buffett it is better to buy a great share even if the timing is not great than to buy a mediocre share with great timing. Great shares go up a great deal over time. Mediocre shares don't. Hence my over-riding focus on trying to fill the QV portfolio with shares in great companies, which I define as 3G plus something indefinable, which I call magic.
