The CASHFLOW Quadrant and Stock Investing


There are many different ways to invest in the stock market. How you invest is often tied to your context and level of education and training. We’ve broken down how stock investing is viewed as it pertains to the people in the four CASHFLOW Quadrants.

They require no thought, time, or energy. The investor has very little control.

Self-Employed (S) Quadrant
The common strategy is to buy low and sell high for capital gains. Stocks can be done without a team. Online brokers automate everything so it is perfect for the control freak.

Business (B) Quadrant
Initial public offering (IPO) is when shares of stock in a big business are sold to stock investors for the first time. Through this process, a private company transforms into a public company.

Investor (I) Quadrant
Option trading is a strategy done to gain exposure of an opportunity or risk while mitigating risks. Options profit from movements in the market that are bullish, bearish, or neutral. In the case of neutral strategies, they can be further classified into those that are bullish on volatility and those that are bearish on volatility. Options require a high level of education to succeed.
