Jay, here's a bottom(?)-fishing idea about a Chinese paper
company from another thread:

investorshub.com

I like the recent volume off what might be a bottom, but I have no good starting point to assess this. Comments?

While I'm linking posts, here's a reported from-the-trenches take on how our recent bond market slide caught big money offside and signals a bigger debacle to come:

Message 19171005

From where I sit, loaded with Canadian junior and microcap explorers of gold and now some diamonds, and short some tech leaders, the multi-year timetable for junior exploration should dovetail nicely with what I expect to be a multi-year decline in the world's reserve fiat and, not coincidentally, its reserve economy.

All parties have to end. Especially an ongoing party where the guests supply the drinks and the host just boozes without end, abandoning even the pretense of a return to sobriety. This while occasionally showing off his very expensive gun collection bought with his good credit, the fruit of never actually having to pay the tab for parties.

>>You seem upset, or nervous, or uncertain of your allocation, as if you sense disaster but is unable to make the necessary adjustments.<<

ROFL. Like I said, you have too much time on your hands. As to my "allocation," I know what works for me. I'm happy to follow in the footsteps of Graham, Dodd, Buffett, Nygren. I don't tinker now. Just keep adding.

It's clear that you're smart enough and spend enough research time so that your trading of a multitude of investment instruments is on balance successful. You do a great disservice to the SI rank and file by suggesting that this may be possible for them.

>>Kids? My dad had me when he was 53. It is a family tradition.<<

One that you should seriously consider renouncing. I am sorely tempted to comment on the ramifications of this type of parent/child age gap, but shall refrain.
