J Mintzmyer is one of 25 Seeking Alpha Contributors participating in the 2017 DIY Investing Summit. In the summit, one of the questions I asked J was what his top advice would be for DIY investors. Below is an excerpt from the interview and a summary of his response.

J's top advice for DIY investors...

  • The more you invest, the more you realize you're fallible
  • Limit your allocations to speculative investments (no more than 20-30% of portfolio)
  • Don't let someone else dictate your style
  • Never invest money you think you'll need in 3-5 years
  • Try to limit your emotions as best as possible
  • Your investments should be based on fundamentals (ex: earnings? cash flow? etc) and should be a story you believe in
  • If the story changes, sell; don't try to hang around and get lucky
  • If price drops and fundamentals are intact, don't panic
  • Remember why you bought

This is just a small excerpt of what's covered in the interview.

The interview if full of detailed tips on J's core investment strategies, top advice for DIY investors, and specific ways he's positioning for 2017.
