The story between Mapfre and Edward Lloyd was brief and not very intense. Instead, it left his heart with an indelible echo.
In the early days of his personal finance career, Edward wanted to bet on $MAP (-0,29%) . A solid company, generous to its shareholders and with an ambitious strategic plan could not be passed up. But Edward started carving his path late, very late. And by the time his DCA strategy took its first steps, the insurer was showing the world great results and a now recurring announcement of juicy dividends.
The stock soared, as it has on other occasions. And Edward feared that this passionate fire would turn it into ashes. Mapfre didn't know how to move in such high trading circles and they both knew it. The best thing to do was to go their separate ways.
And now he waits, like that sailor on the dock of San Blas. Because his beloved Mapfre will return to the path of €2.5. Not because it is worth little, because it is worth everything, but because it is worth much more than what speculators and bloodsuckers are paying for their affection.
It will wait for whatever it takes. After these financial results or after the next. And when you come back, he will love you as you deserve to be his main position.
Always yours.

The story between Mapfre and Edward Lloyd was brief and lacked much intensity. Yet, it left his heart with an indelible echo.
At the beginning of his journey into personal finance, Edward wanted to bet on $MAP. A solid company, generous to its shareholders, and with an ambitious strategic plan couldn't be overlooked. But Edward began his path late-far too late. And by the time his DCA strategy was taking its first steps, the insurer unveiled excellent results and, once again, announced juicy dividends.
The stock soared, as it had done before. And Edward feared that such a passionate flame would turn him to ashes. Mapfre didn't know how to move in such lofty price spheres-and they both knew it. The best thing was to go their separate ways.
And now he waits, like that sailor on the pier of San Blas. Because his beloved Mapfre will return to the €2.5 path. Not because it's worth little-for it is worth everything-but because it's worth far more than what speculators and leeches are paying for its affection.
He'll wait as long as it takes. After these financial results, or the next. And when you come back, he'll love you as you deserve-to become his main position.
Forever yours,
Eddy
