posted on: March 17, 2014

A rare rant (II) Some days agoI wrote that I had decided not to renew my subscription to a well-known market advisory.

posted on: March 6, 2014

A rare rant Today I decided not to renew my subscription to one market advisory (whose name I’d rather not mention). It’s been a hard decision to make, since one becomes accustomed to the daily “fix” on market commentaries. Anyhow, to realize that one’s time is better spent in minding my own business (or even […]
