Louise Yamada: Bearing Up
Source: http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/wordpress/VYxj/~3/343821595/Posted on Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008 | In Market Commentary
Kate Welling (welling@weeden and former Barron’s associate editor) can rightfully lay claim to being one of the most accomplished financial interviewers/writers around. Readers will recall her fascinating discussion of a while ago with Albert Edwards and James Montier of Société Générale, casting a rather gloomy spin on the economic outlook.

Still squarely in the bear camp, she has now done another absorbing interview: this time with Louise Yamada, top-ranked “Institutional Investor” technical analyst. Although the views were expressed about three weeks ago, the content is as relevant today as then. Louise’s track record is just too good to be ignored, especially when she concludes the interview by saying: “I’d rather be out of the market wishing I were in, than in the market wishing I were out.”
