Invested in equities, seeking short-term gains

I invested in equities, expecting short-term gains, but the market turned against me. I lost a significant portion of my investment.

"I wish I had diversified my portfolio and done more research before investing."
If I could tell you one thing
"Diversify your portfolio and do thorough research before making investment decisions."
