Sam, that was an excellent post. I'm all for a friendly exchange of ideas to better our collective investment returns. That will never happen unless we have the necessary flexibility to make money in changing markets.

I already have gleaned a great deal of knowledge from those who post here. We could do better if we all made an effort to be more tolerant of the investment styles of others.

Where do I sign up?

Lets start a new thread if necessary and do exactly this:

It may not be easy, but I think we CAN compete. What it takes is flexibility and collaboration. Flexibility implies being as flexible in the allocation of capital as a hedge fund or a global financial institution. A top-down oriented asset manager first asks himself where in the world are conditions optimal for investment. Then, in what industry. And finally, in what companies.

Effective collaboration implies a division of labor wherein each person contributes according to his time availability and skillset. Some are good at TA. Others at FA. Some have deep industry experience; others have deep experience in stocks, options, economics, etc. I think that if we want to compete, we need to work hard as a team to help find opportunity and avoid risk.

If we cannot effectively cooperate in a friendly, open and intelligent manner, then I agree we do not have a chance.


Again, Great Post!
