I set out tonight to write up an entry about a suitable stock to add to my blog. But nothing seemed right. I scanned through the list of the top % gainers, my usual starting place, but there... [Read More]

My good friend Susan Hessel is recovering from surgery today for breast cancer. Last week, to explain to her friends, she wrote a piece about her own experience with this disease. Always smiling, always optimistic about what life was handing her, I asked her if she would kindly allow me to share with my own readers her words that are far more eloquent and informative than anything I could write here about this disease that strikes so many women today. She consented to me blogging her words;... [Read More]

Hello Again my friends! It is late and I am having a bit of seller's remorse. Earlier today I parted company with my shares of Colgate (CL) because of a slight miss on revenue while earnings exceeded expectations in the latest report.
I think I got a bit 'self conscious' of the public nature of my blogging and trading and probably rushed that trade. Over and over we have seen stocks pummeled on announcements that really aren't bad. The market wants to sell on good news and sell more on bad. ... [Read More]
