‘When nearly everyone else is cautious about the outlook, they are probably wrong and things are going to get better. Equally, when very few are worried that is the time to be most wary…..the stock market is an excellent discounting mechanism. By the time everyone is worried about something it is normally largely in the price.’ (Anthony Bolton) “You're neither right nor wrong because other people agree with you. You're right because your facts are right and your reasoning is right - that's the only thing that makes you right.

I'm a full-time investor running my portfolio from peaceful Leicestershire countryside. I also happen to be UK´s best selling investment book author and a Financial Times Best selling author. Originally, I wrote all my ideas out in full on this website. Now that ADVFN publish them they are entitled to display the full version for six months – you can see them here. Thus can I only post the first few paragraphs here for anything younger than six months.
I write 2 to 3 newsletters per week - investing is about making the right decisions, not many decisions. Categories
