A Review of Posts to this Site….Number 2
October 1, 2012
Since August 2010, I have published 46 Posts. These Posts either indicate my market actions or focus on issues which I believe make it exceedingly difficult for the middle income investor to get a fair shake.
People who have been re-structured out of a job and convert their 401Ks to self directed IRAs are generally referred to as investors but the reality is that all too often Wall Street sees them as something less… to put it politely.
My December 31, 2011 Post, ” A Review of Posts to this Site “ contained a list of the posts which best reflect my market philosophy ( see Archives ). Now, I add to that list to show how my thinking has continued to evolve and put me in a position to make winning trades with some consistency despite financial industry insider hijinks. Of my 27 posts since January 1, 2012, I list below the 6 posts which have had the biggest impact on the clarity of my thinking, allowing me to reach a place where I have a far higher level of self confidence as a trader. All 6 Posts can be accessed via Archives ( See column on right )
February 21, 2012 – …………………………………………… Gold – $35 per ounce – a Personal Perspective
April 5, 2012 – ………………………………………….. A Vote for ” SPY “,
May 4, 2012 – ………………………………………….. Where is all that ETF money Invested ? – Why ?
May 12, 2012 …………………………………………. ETFs versus Specific Risk….JP Morgan Chase
June 28, 2012, ………………………………………….. ” A Stock Picker’s Market.”
July 27,2012 ……………………………………………. Surfing with ” SPY “….
All this has led me to ” SPY ” and ” GLD ” which as ETFs, I believe will trade in trends highly responsive to world economic and political activity. It doesn’t get more macro and transparent than this !
