July, 2008...........


People see patterns,
to make sense of the random,
whether true or not!

Long term investors
using the ValuWave guide
see when best to buy.

August, 2008...........

Timing everything!
Or so many people say,
But if price too dear?

"Efficient markets"
require no timing skills.
So the textbook says!
--------------------------

So the problem is
where are theoretical
"efficient markets?"

October, 2008.......!

Seas are very rough;
dramamine is prescribed to
all AIM users now.

Safe harbor ahead.
Can we make it in one tack?
Can't jibe in this wind.

Big waves crash over.
All corks driven deep under.
Which ones will rise first?

December, 2008..........

Panics cause mistakes
in perception of value.
Only time will tell.

Two thousand and eight
patiently waits for closing.
What about Oh Nine?

March, 2009............

A glimmer of light
after a long, dark winter.
Hibernation ends?

May, 2009............

April showered us
with many a rising stock.
Should we expect more?

October, 2009............

Looking back at March
Confirms our suspicion of
Capitulation.

When impossible
becomes inevitable
Then risk becomes known

November, 2009.......

Black Swans fly over
the impossible landscapes
but find their nest sites.

my debt to:
Toofuzzy,
Alexis de Tocqueville

January, 2010...........

Here's some funny haiku relative to the real estate bubble.

February, 2010.........

"Too much CASH!" I said
just before the markets fell.
Lichello was right!

June, 2010..........

Government spending
is the same as deficit,
since they produce ziltch.

August, 2010.......

UpTick Rule is Dead
But Rule 201 comes soon.
Will it help our cause?

November, 2010.............

Election's over.
Ads back to shampoo and beer.
Oh, what a relief!

High Frequency Trades;
The Ultimate Arbitrage!
Spoil Investor's plans.

December, 2010............

If WikiLeaks were
spelled with E replacing A,
would onions grow there?
