Commentaire intéressant sur OTC journal Ca me prenait ca!! Armand Email : info@otcjournal.com URL : otcjournal.com To OTC Journal Members: Market Comment This market is very listless. For the most part, large cap stocks are selling off. Small caps are barely trading, and they shouldn't even bother to open the market for micro caps. As one analyst put it so accurately: "Volume is as thin as Ally McBeal". It feels as if everybody that is going to sell has sold, and the rest of us are waiting for a catalyst to get us excited enough to start buying again. With another interest rate hike likely in October, it is difficult to find reasons to believe that stocks are going higher in the short term. This is one of the reasons that it is so important to have a one to two year investment horizon in the micro cap companies we profile. You cannot predict when Companies will make exciting progress, or when market conditions will provide you with an enhanced exit point in a stock. Long term investors should be adding positions in their favorite micro caps at today's levels. It is almost impossible to predict the absolute bottom and the absolute top. If you just try to take 80% out of the middle you will consistently produce outstanding returns. The great Sir John Templeton, one of the early architects of the Mutual Fund industry, said "I always made the most money when I bought at the point of Maximum Pessimism".
