Rails. No estimates. My thing is just reading
ST and IT ops, as best I can identify them, whenever they pop up.
Now that I've taken a lot of large profits in energy, I can have a little fun focusing on other things. So far, just playing for some ST trading scalps in the golds with a little of my profit hoard.
My fav, for the moment, is cash.
OT/afa summer fun? Recently made the largest and most important additions (to date) in my growing art collection.
Like stock picking, requires a good educational foundation from study and DD which I've enjoyed doing, as R&R, for years. This week, we took delivery of a very nice portrait painting from a gallery in northern Virginia. The work was done in 1894 by an American artist with works in a number of mid-level U.S. museums. Although art, to me, isn't an investment but the reward of good trading and investing; can't help but notice that it's a very inefficient market. So, there're excellent values, if you know what you're doing. Like gems or oriental rugs, it takes time and patience to gather the necessary knowledge and instincts to be a good buyer. Guess you might say it's one of the few advantages of getting old.<G>
