Stock Analysis: Southern Peru Copper (PCU)

PCU has been one of my long time favorites. This has been my commodity play time and time again. They produce copper, zinc, and silver, and mine gold and lead as well. These guys have solid fundamentals, a strong management team, and are riding a long technical uptrend. If that doesn’t sound good, their 7% […]

Growth Stock Investing

When looking for a potential growth stock investment, think of yourself as an investor looking for a business to become part owner. As part owner, you are not looking to sell your business right away, so you will seek out long term investments that have the highest potential to outperform at the most reasonable […]

Start Investing: Conquer Your Fear

I’ve heard so many times from many of my friends who have been interested in investing:

Newton’s Third Law Applied to the Stock Market

I’m sure that you’ve heard of the Newton’s third law, “for every action there’s an equal and opposite reaction.” Well, this law certainly rings true for the stock market. You may not have realized, but every single time you make a trade - whether to buy or sell - there’s another person (or trading system) […]

Efficient Market Hypothesis

There’s an old joke about two economists walking down Wall Street when they come upon a $100 bill lying on the ground. As one bends over to pick it up, his colleague stops him and says “Don’t bother. If that was actually a $100 bill, someone would’ve already picked it up.”
This joke epitomizes the efficient […]

Buy and Hold: My Previous Life

The next stage in my investing career, I followed the age old buy and hold strategy. I started my search by looking at companies I knew personally and liked. I looked up articles on fundamental analysis and examined financial statements. I attempted to look at research reports and articles about the company. I looked at […]

Stock Market Overview: June 10th

Last week, the market experienced its first major multi-day decline since the big loss in late February. Investor confidence has been fairly high lately with the market doing so well and continuously pushing new levels.

As I discussed in the last market overview, there are numerous bearish indicators in the market that have appeared:

Price has fallen […]

Managing Risk: What You Can Do to Help Protect Your Portfolio

Risk is the possibility of losing money. Every investment has a level of risk. Even treasury bills, which are commonly referred to as risk free investments, have credit risk associated to the United States defaulting on their debt (highly unlikely).
