Momentum investing is essentially the opposite of contrarian investing. A momentum investor focuses on stocks that are rising in price, and avoids stocks that are falling in price or that are perceived to be undervalued. The logic is that when a pattern of growth has been established, the growth will continue. 3, record 2, English, - momentum%20investing
