Founder of Primitive Ventures Analyzes Traits Suitable for Investors

Dovey Wan, the founder of Primitive Ventures, discusses the traits that individuals should possess to be successful investors. He points out that what is lacking in the capital markets are those who can achieve tenfold returns over a decade, rather than just those who can achieve it within a year. Besides intelligence, talent, and hard work, Wan believes there are two underestimated factors:

1. An extreme passion for the capital markets. Investors should have a deep understanding of market operations, price formation, liquidity shifts, and risk pricing, rather than just a love for money.

2. Finding an investment approach that suits one's personality and behavioral patterns. Those who excel in short-term trading should not rely solely on fundamental analysis, while those skilled in trading mispricings should not limit themselves to thematic investments.

Wan emphasizes that an investor's reaction speed, risk preference, and time preference will all influence their strategies and trading structures. The market always rewards strengths, and understanding oneself is more important than understanding the market.
