Words from the Wise: Gone Fishing
Posted on Saturday, May 31st, 2008 | In Bonds, Commodities, Current Market News, Stocks to WatchContributed by: Prieur du Plessis (http://www.investmentpostcards.com) -
At the moment I am attending Rob Arnott’s Research Affiliates’ annual gathering of its advisory panel at Laguna Beach, California. A rather full schedule will unfortunately result in my not being able to put together “Words from the Wise” for the past week. My apologies for any inconvenience caused, but rest assured that the normal blogging service will be resumed this week.
Please visit my website (by clicking on the heading above) for the full article, as well as other interesting investment snippets.
