BETWEEN THE HEDGES IBD’s 20 Rules for Success IBD, otherwise know as Investor’s Business Daily, has compiled a basic set of rules for success. They claim that your investment results should improve materially if you carefully follow these 20 rules (rules in bold lettering). I have added my “two cents” after each rule based on my experiences as a trader. I can tell you that these rules helped establish my foundation towards successful investing. New readers can try the paper for free for two or four weeks depending on a print or electronic version: Free Trial I now use the eIBD electronic version so I can save them but I started with the print version (both are great for their own reasons). 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20.

Technical Indicators and Overlays Technical Indicators are the often squiggly lines found above, below and on-top-of the price information on a technical chart. Indicators that use the same scale as prices are typically plotted on top of the price bars and are therefore referred to as “Overlays”.

Smart Money Tracker Do Julian Robertsons Tiger Cubs Have Alpha? Julian Robertson is a hedge fund legend. He stopped managing money for his clients more than 10 years ago, but he is still widely followed in the media and his comments attract a lot of attention. His stellar track record is to credit. Julian Robertson returned 31.7% per year after fees between 1980 and 1998, beating S&P 500’s 12.7% annual return by a huge margin. He performed terribly in 1999 and 2000 and his overall return went down to 26%. Robertson is also a legend because the people who used to work for him went on to build their own stellar track records. Comparing raw return numbers may give you an idea about a hedge fund’s performance but you need to do an in-depth analysis to see the source of a hedge fund’s returns. We calculated Tiger cubs’ alpha for the entire 9 year period, for the first 6 years and the last 3 years using Carhart’s four factor model. The tiger cubs’ alpha was 146 basis points per month between 2000 and 2005. John Griffin - Blue Ridge Capital
bourse pour tous Zman's Energy Brain Backup Site Wallstreet Survivor Le blog des Marchés de la bourse et des investisseurs Les résultats du premier tour des élections présidentielles suscitent de réelles inquiétudes parmi les investisseurs qui redoutent à la fois une dégradation des relations franco allemandes dommageable au fonctionnement de l'euro et un report aux calendes grecs de l'objectif de rétablissement de l'équilibre des finances publiques françaises. Ces craintes, auxquelles s'ajoutent la dégradation de la situation politique aux Pays-Bas et des indices d'activités économiques très décevants en Europe, conduisent à la forte baisse que nous connaissons aujourd'hui. Mais dans le cas où François Hollande l'emportait au second tour, certains investisseurs envisagent déjà un scénario comparable à celui de 1981. Un tel scénario serait très bienvenu, mais il a hélas très peu de chances de se produire, car l'état des marchés et surtout celui de la France de 2012 n'est hélas plus du tout celui de 1981. Première différence, l'inflation. La compétitivité des entreprises françaises est dégradée
