Ice, thank you for your confidence! Now that we're hardly ever discussing kooks, maybe we can use this thread for occasional
investment related discussions of a general nature? Since you started the thread, it would be need your approval.

I have one item that has occupied my thoughts lately: what are the premises and covenants that stock market investing is based on?
I think the most important one is 'If earnings per share grow, then
shares rise in value'. We have all seen this assumption violated in
the short term. Is it valid in the long term? I would like us to make a list of tacit assumptions that underlie our participation in the market.

Gottfried

PS: good that you decided to stay!
