You're welcome, Tom.
In the mail the day before was a short book, "Learn from the Generals of the Market," by Azeez Mustapha, ISBN-13: 978-1908756312 (ADVFM Books) 2014.
It is a brief look at a variety of people known for stock market innovations or attitudes. They include brief interviews or lessons that might be learned from them. Among the usual suspects are Charlie Munger, Warren Buffet's lesser know half, Julian Robertson, of hedge fund fame, Thomas Rowe Price, the "father" of growth investing and others such as Sam Sieden who has been known for flying in the face of conventional wisdom.
All are quick reads but to really understand the implications of the ideas one needs to go outside and gather more information. I've only dipped into the book a bit but it seems worthwhile to keep you awake and alert to what is the stock market past, and often a harbinger of the future, as some ideas keep getting recycled, going in and out of fashion much like the latest hauté couture, and often just as ugly.
ADVFN, the owner of Investors Hub, seems to be getting into publishing books on financial matters. One that I noticed, and am going to get, is "The Game In Wall Street" by Hoyle and Clem Chambers. It's about market manipulation and how the same ways it was done over a 100 years ago are still around.
Best,
Allen
